sweep and restrict

In this scenario we want to restrict a tool path to not cut an edge in a mould by following the mould cavity and "curve up" to the flat surface over the edge. What we aim for is a cut that leaves and enters the edge straight up/down to make the cut as sharp as possible. This is easily made with a sweep command in Rhino. As usual, bring it up to full screen and HD quality!
