You can use one of the following methods to define an axis of revolution:

• Select model geometry to use as an external axis of revolution

• Sketch a centerline when you sketch a section

Using an external axis of revolution

1. Make sure the model contains geometry that you want to use as an axis of revolution.

2. Create a section that you want to revolve.

3. Click on the Base Features toolbar.

4. Click the Axis collector .

5. Select a feature or geometric reference to use as an axis of revolution.

6. Continue defining the revolved feature.
