Create A Revolved Solid

With REVOLVE, you can create a solid by revolving a closed object about the X or Y axis of the current UCS, using a specified angle. You can also revolve the object about a line, polyline, or two specified points. Similar to EXTRUDE, REVOLVE is useful for objects that contain fillets or other details that would otherwise be difficult to reproduce in a common profile. If you create a profile using lines or arcs that meet a polyline, use the PEDIT Join option to convert them to a single polyline object before you use REVOLVE.

You can use REVOLVE on closed objects such as polylines, polygons, rectangles, circles, ellipses, and regions. You cannot use REVOLVE on 3D objects, objects contained within a block, polylines that have crossing or intersecting segments, or polylines that are not closed.
