Need help with lofting (guides)

Hello Everyone,

Hope all is well. I am currently trying to model a F-104 jet, and I am currently in the fuselage phase. However, I can't seem to loft two sketches using a sketch guide, and I've been stuck on it for a while.

Below, I have attached a file to my current work, so you can resolve the problem on your hardware if you would like to. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem like I can attach a video file.

Thank you for your time and assistance.

I'm pretty sure you can't do what you are trying to do. You can't use sketch 8 as a base pattern like that.

I made some changes to sketches 3, 6, 7, and 9. I broke 3, 6 and 7 into multiple elements so they would for sure intersect properly with the guide, sketch 9. I converted elements into construction geometry so the kernel would not be confused.

The F-104 is a nice project! Tell me about it when you're finished. Did this happen to be inspired by Joko Engineering by chance? If so, that guy is awesome!

I just realized Joseph_L is @JokoEngineeringhelp and I believe we had a quick chat over email and phone. Great channel, I'm subscribed.
