well, no, if you want to make a curved spline or a very complex path then a loft is the way to go, also, if you want to further modify it then loft is once again, the way to go.
IIRC, first make a model and then put another model inside of it to make the shape of the hole. Then under compound objects select boolean, then select the main model, then hit "select operand B" and click the other one to make the hole, making sure the boolean type is set to subtraction (A-B)

Ah thanks, I tried lofting just the path when I wanted to create a cable but I forgot you needed a shape for it to recognise.

you should consider sweeping or just rendering the shape with thickness instead.

Thank you for 3D max Vids because I learn much better when showed instead of reading and doing.
