    Something like this? I used a series of Lofts and ellipses (about 5 minutes). Refine as necessary.

    Sorry, the one that I'm trying to draw is with a radius (fillet, not chamfer).
    And it is a circlar pipe reducer instead of ellipses.
    Please take a close look on my photo attached before.

    Thanks.

    Just substitute the work ellipses with circles. Draw your circles, loft, fillet.

    Sorry, Richard.
    This kind of shape is not so simple to me.

    Actually, the reducer has an offset with a straight side.
    The problem is that I can't fillet the edges between extrude & loft if 2 circles are line-up on one side.
    But this is what eccentric reducer meant.

    Again, your helps are appreciated.

    Zip and attach what you have so far. You don't want to fillet - combination of weight and one other trick should get what you want.

    I tried again & I think I got it.
    Could you please have a look the drawing attached if I did something improperly.
    Thanks.
