If I have a rectangle, why cannot i revolve it about the axis going through the middle of on of its side but only about an axis going through one of the edges? In the example below, the rectangle cannot be revolved about the selected construction line but it can be revolved about the other construction line.

If you draw a solid line on the construction line you create a closed region of 1/2 the rectangle and this can be revolved. The other 1/2 of the sketch rectangle is not needed.
