How do I sink this revolved feature deeper into the part?

Hello, As the title states, how do I sink this revolved feature into the part deeper without changing its size? And, how could I do that to a specific floor depth? For example, the botton center point of the radius would be .100" fron the bottom of the part. I have tried using extrude along with revolve, and I feel like that is the way to do it - but, I can't figure it out.

Thanks to nyone who can offer help or point me to a tutorial.

A quick solution would be to just extrude that face inside the box after the revolve.

Thanks, I was able to make this work to achive what I wanted. Is there a way to this with all the different extrudes? I am wondering how this will affect if there other sketches on the same face, or for example a second revolve that is a different depth.

another solution could be to use this custom extrude feature which allows non-planar faces as input:

you could extrude downward the revolved-cut faces, or any other faces cut out.

to get the extrude depth, you may want to play around with some measured variables, and input those to the 'depth' field. e.g.
#Required_depth= 0.1"
Depth = #Measured_depth - #Required_depth
