To Create a Neck
A neck is a special type of revolved slot that creates a groove around a revolved part or feature.
You always create a neck on a Through Axis datum plane and sketch it inside the part. You must align both ends of the section to the revolved surface of the parent feature.
1. Set the allow_anatomic_features configuration option to yes to make the Neck command available on the All Commands list.
2. Add the Neck command to the desired user-defined group on the ribbon.

5. Create or select a Through Axis datum plane as the sketching plane.
6. Sketch the neck cross section open with the ends aligned to the silhouette edge of the part or feature.

In creating a neck, the section is revolved around the part to the specified angle measure, removing the material inside the section.
