Hi, I am reletively new to revit and for the life of me cannot figure out how to make this object:

http://www.3-form.com/studio-ditto.php

http://www.3-form.com/studio-ditto-ditto_specs.php Cryingsee bottom of this pg for product specs)

I have created the two forms and managed to blend them (as seen in the attached image) however each of the 'ovals' shud have a dip on the y axis.  For some reason I am only able to edit the forms on x plane... any ideas of what tool i can use or how i can create this shape?  Cryingsee image attached done in CAD)

I have literally spent 5+hrs on it and am no further along. Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

Thanks!

This is close but not quite there.  Done in the family editor.... think voids.

i was also thinking it would be a perfect adaptive component.   But those aren't the easiest thing to get into as a relatively new user of the software.  Also -- these things don't need to adapt, so much as array.   So my 2nd suggestion would be to just model it as a curtain panel, and grid it out.
