Conceptual Mass: Sweep along surface edges?

I'm having a bit of trouble making the transition from Rhino to using the coneptual massing environment. I have a surface that I need to show a solid border around. In Rhino, its as simple as piping a profile aroudn the edges. When trying this in Revit, it deletes the whole surface, or gives an error. Is there any way to easily take a profile and sweep it around a curvilinear surface? Or am I looking at this the wrong way?

 

Thanks!

Thank you for your post.  In this case I have included a helpful link below to a movie on this inquiry.  Please review and let us know in the community if this helped in answering this post.  Judging by the Rhino software use, if a more precise tool is needed for smaller mechanical parts, a possible alternate would be our inventor software.  I have included a link below that one for reference and review.  I hope this helped.  Thank you.
