Blending 2 swept surfaces following profi

Hello Everyone,





I am new to Solidworks, coming from Pro Engineer. I have attached a model that I am trying to take the 2 swept ends and blend them together to make one continous part using the inside dia. as a sweep and the very outside as the swept profile. The part needs the 2 open ends to blend together but must also follow the inside radius and the outside swept radius profile. I have no clue any help would be great.





It is hard to explain, but hopefully some one knows what I am trying to attempt. Basically need a solid track for a ball to follow thru but need a transition at the 2 ends to meet.

My file is 100 kb to big to post anyone wanting to view it for me and see if you can help out please reply.





Thanks,
 
I think its too late for you.......

For blending 'Swept' ends you must have to maintain the tangency of the path curve at the joining point.
(You can also use the 'thin feature' option in 'sweep'...)
