SOLIDWORKS - Projected Curve - Sketch on faces and Sketch on sketch

[@Rfster900]

I have been struggling to understand the concept of projecting a sketch on another sketch. Your explanation is exactly what I needed to finally get a good grasp on this concept. Great work, great explanation. I really like the way you demonstrate visually the concept. Thank you so much.

Amazing video. I coudnt understand how the curve was forming but with the practical examples it was very clear and I am already thinking of where I can implement this. What I still find a little difficult to comprehend is how would I make such a curve for a path if the planes used for the base sketches are not exactly 90 degress off eachother. How would that work if I have a difficult path which needs to surround many other parts in a tight assembly (meaning a lot of components being very close to eachother)? Would I need to make multiple planes on which to make my sketches and then do a projecetion curve out of 5+ sketches?

Very Good clear I was trying to get a rope over the deck on a boat and needed to make the whole thing by combining a number of items together with the path been set 1/2 diameter of the rope above the deck line and was getting disjointed curves I think this is down to the fact the addition surface 1/2 diameter offset gives a small gap on the deck line the two sides of the boat were mirrored about the main front plain So I had a small gap between the two sides of the deck. this video is the first one showing how Solidworks get it to work.
