How to do a solid with a 3D surface

All:

New to NX, using NX11, and I have a question about how to model an extrusion with a swept 3D surface.  I've attached a .zip file with 7 screen shots showing the model, and how we did the extrusion in AutoDesk Inventor.  The first 4 shots show the finished extrusion from 4 different isometric views.  The fifth one shows where the geometry comes from, two 2D drawings at a right angle to each other.  In Inventor, we would use a "3D intersection" feature to project the appropriate points from the 2D geometry (just like you did on the drafting board... remember those?)  The points would be used to create a surface, which would then be extruded to the existing solid model geometry.

 

I'm not concerned about how I get there in NX11, I'd just like some input on how the folks who are adept with NX would go about it.  The only caveat is, the result must be a solid model, not a combination of solid/surface model.  This is due to client preference.  Thanx for your support!
