Did I do this right?

I think I messed it up, the explanation I'm following is 2018 version and this is newest one I needed to do ''all'' while extrude, not sure if I did it good. If someone could check, thanks!

Hi!

 

It's wrong.
Select the option through all:

Oh, thanks! But it still looks wrong, or it's good now?

The extrusion options are good...

 

The problem is your sketch... is missing a dimension:

Tip:

To visualize the sketch: when editing the sketch, hit F7, or select this option;

I think it's good now, thanks for help. Can you still check the file if everything is good?

Sketch8 position of circle for the hole is not fully defined.

Note that the sketch will change color when fully defined.

In a few minutes I will attach a more efficient technique.

Like this? Is that the only wrong thing?

Tip:

 

to avoid these kinds of errors, when you are editing/creating a sketch, make sure it is fully constrained at the end.

You can check that at the bottom right (images below).
If you finished the sketch and it is still not fully constrained, the geometry is not fixed and it's missing something to fix the geometry. So, you have to analyze your sketch and add the proper dimensions or constraints until the sketch becomes fully constrained.

This is a basic rule in 3D modeling and a very important one.
