This question has been asked many times and there are several ways to do this.
This solution came from Jacant
- Draw your two different shapes
- Draw two lines to connect the two surfaces.
- Select both surfaces.
- Use the 'Pull' tool with the 'Sweep' option. Control click select the two lines as the sweep profile. Enter.
- Three surfaces will be created.
- Select the three surfaces and join together using the 'Combine' tool.
- One Solid created.
- Delete the curves.
There are a few things to watch out for:

Can you kindly elaborate on what to watch out for? I'm trying to do exactly what the 2nd figure shows, a curve tube, and was not able to just as you've indicated by the cross. I can't make sense out of figure 2-2, thus I could not proceed. Kindly enlighten me. Thanks in advanced!
I think it is just saying that when you draw the connecting lines, ensure that they are to the faces of the shape (hexagon in this example) and not the corners
It works, thanks!
Hi, I am trying to blend a rectangle into a circle, but it always looks like the rectangle "rotates" into the circle. What am I doing wrong?
