Revolve

Simple revolve part, 4" od x 1.75 id x .560 tall. I need to do a cut from the top plane, thru all, to have a 1.75 wide opening up one side. see attached image. I did a revolve, it shows up in the tree as RevolutionSrf2.

Did I do something wrong? When I try to cut through that with an extrude, the cut feature does not show up.

I have learned much from the forums over the past 9 months, I am planning on purchasing Inventor next month for my side business. Little issues like this are annoying.

@corey_danielson

Can you Attach your *.ipt file here.

Because it shows as a Surface Body rather than a Solid Body - you did not have a closed profile for your Revolve.

Ciao, riusciresti a condividere la parte per poterla visionare?

Quale versione di Inventor stai utilizzando?

thank you, I deleted the revolve, and re-revolved. Selecting solid before selecting the sketch, and it worked perfectly
