- [Instructor] One advantage of using parametric surfaces to construct the solid model is that the sketches that make up those parametric surfaces can be modified in a predictable manner. You can have flexibility as well, if you choose, by leaving certain dimensions undefined. Let's take a look at a couple of quick examples of being able to make modifications. We'll expand the Sketches folder and turn on a few of the sketches, such as the loft front and back. These are the profiles that the top surface transitions between. By making modifications to the profile, you'll see that the solid model updates. This can be done on the back as well, and you can even change the exit point of the crown. By turning on the sweep profile, we can make changes to the diameter of the sweep and get different effects. Then, turning on the extrusion profile, we can tweak its shape as well and update the entire model. Now, any of these that…
