- [Instructor] I want to talk about the extrude
and the revolve tool located under the home tab.
These are great tools to slap something out quickly
you may define a profile and then extrude that profile
out to get something to start with before you start
manipulating control points on that surface.
Same thing with the revolve, so for this you simply pick
the profile and in this case it's a planar curve
and because it's planar it infers the vector.
If you want to actually pick the vector you can come in
here and specify vector you may have a tooling direction
you want to use, whatever that may be.
And select OK to create your extrude.
Let me go ahead and hide that.
And for revolve go in, select the revolve tool once again
specify the section and pick your vector.
I'll use this X axis.
In this case even though it's an open profile doing a full
revolve will create a solid, it's able to close off
those ends based off of that vector even though these
are going to be planar.
If you don't want that to be a solid maybe you want it
to be a sheet, you can just convert that to a sheet.
Another way that I'll convert to a sheet is if I do not
close that loop completely, so if it's only a partial
revolve, you'll end up with a sheet body as well.
