Can't figure how to close my sketch so a specific part can be extruded

Hi all! 


After doing some exercises and playing with the sketches, I ran into an issue.

 

In the screenshots attached, you can see that I have started the sketch using circles and then I used the lines to finish drawing the sketch.


As you can see, the only parts that are blue and extrudable are the circle, the center part seems not closed and I can't extrude it.


Any clue on how to fix this ?


Thank you !

Start dragging white dots.

What do you observe?

I recommend that you create ONLY one line (or arc or circle) at a time and fully constrain it before going to next line, arc or circle.

Hi @TheCADWhisperer , I guess my first draw was a mess :D.

 

I have done it from scratch and now it's ok.
