Is Double sided Bevel with Extrude Curve node possible? Or orientation of extrusion in model graph.

 

I am attempting to create a procedual barrel base mesh using strickly curve nodes within substance designer 3d model graph. I am adding a handle currently using extrude curve node.  The only issue I am having is that the bevel only occurs on one side of extrude.  Is it possible to extrude it on both sides or orient it to the other side.  

 

As a second note, does anyone have a solution to the "Error: PreProcessFailed" when expoting to a model graph.

 

Thanks.

As far as I know the bevel only works on the top.

 

As an alternative, could you extrude an elliptical curve along a C shaped curve (partial ellipse) using a sweep curve node? That would still give you exposable parameters for the handle

 

 

On the error message, Luca (from Adobe) mentioned in a post a couple of days ago that the error can appear if a parameter's default value is out of its soft/hard range set when the parameters were exposed. It may be worth a look there.
