Re: Need Basic Help

Marvin
There are at least three simple ways to do this.
A simple revolve might be best for beginners such as we.
Just make a sketch of the shaft and groove to the dimensions that you
require, of half of the shaft
and on the unfinished half of the sketch, draw a vertical centerline.
Exit the
sketch and choose Features, Revolve, and you should be Golden.
