Trouble with sweep command

Hi, I'm trying to Create a slide for a children's playground, but I'm having trouble with the sweep command. I want the slide to be hollow, of course, and 9mm thick. I can't figure out how to adjust the thickness using the sweep command. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm attaching the slide I created with the sweep command. Thank you for your time.

No file attached.

Try this

Find the red End of Part marker in the browser.
(End of Folded on sheet metal parts EOF)
Drag the red EOP to the top of the browser hiding all features.

Save the file with the EOP in a rolled up state.

Right click on the file name and select Send to Compressed (zipped) Folder.

Attach the resulting *.zip file here.

 

And try a different browser if you still can't attach the *.zip

I finally figured it out with trusty ol' Youtube. I just needed to sweep the path I created all the way through as a solid not as hollow. Then use the shell command to hollow it out with a thickness of 9mm. Thank you for willing to assist!
