I'm trying to loft a specific shape of a pulley attached to a shaft. Ive benn
having many problems with this. I'll try to show the shape. I uploaded the
lofted shape showing the problem(3ds library-pulley.gif).

This is basically it. It's slightly longer. I've lofted the basic shape without
the pulley – no problem. When I add the pulley with its groove it comes out
mis-shapen. I also tried to loft the pulle alone and that is the problem. What
am I doing wrong? I've changed all options that I can think of. Changed hook,
shape steps, path steps, optimization (on,off), checked shape.
I made another pulley in the editor and used Boolean subtraction for the groove
no problem.
