Headfirst into the CNC deep end today

I'm the proud new owner of a "new to me" Fireball Meteor CNC machine. It feels really odd to have a computer in the shop but I guess I need to get used to that.

Sweeping a sketch

I am currently drawing up my bridge design in Fusion 360. It has been a lot of fun and has gone really well so far. But I am a little stuck on rounding over the belly. I could easily put a fillet on it. But I want a little more round over on one side than the other. So I made a sketch on a plane of the curve I want to have. And then I try to sweep it across the belly, and it works, but it stops just shy of both ends where I want it to s…
