Next, I offset the top and extruded again to create a lid. Then created a tank by drawing a line and extruding with a taper. I created a flow piper using thicken and shell.

For this model I have oversimplified the design but feel free to let your imagination go wild. Extrude top surface up to connect the 2 solids.Ī toilet wouldn't be very useful without a water flow (until the dry toilet is perfected of course), so the next step was creating the tank and flow pipe.I simply extruded the top surface of the toilet bowl to the main body.
Once I had created both parts, I needed to fit them together.
The result should be similar to the image below. Select the bottom face, back face, and the hole for removal. Note: Ensure that the hole is smaller than the toilet bowl we just created. Draw a polyline or spline in the shape of the bowl opening on the top surface. Select the angled surfaces and hit Delete to flatten the top and bottom surfaces. Create a closed, polyline in the shape of the toilet profile. Next, I created the main body using revolve, extrude (taper), fillet and shell. Extrude the face of the exit of the "pipe". It will now look a bit like an old-fashioned, clay pipe. Select the flat, top and side faces to remove. Scale entities based on alignment points: Yes. Use ALIGN to create the lofting shape of your toilet bowl. I began by creating the u-bend and toilet bowl, using align, loft, simplify and shell. It's a little more complicated, but hang in there.
