I would appreciate help with this sweep please. A zip file is attached. I just want to sweep the rectangle along the 3d curve. I would also like the minimum twist option but nothing is working yet. Any advice?

Or maybe like this - I noticed that your Profile workplane was not perpendicular to the Sweep Path.

Unroll the features in the browser.

Thanks for the help. Actually neither of those is what I wanted but I did figure it out. I projected the loop to a plane parallel to top plane and then used my 3d loop as a guide curve. The result is attached in case some one is interested. Thanks again JD.

Here's another way... or faster way to do this... surface sweep just a vertical line and thicken.. much faster to resolve as well.
