How do I make a perfect sphere?

BIGprintersfan

This is my first time using this program and I got off from a very easy program for kids and I have no clue how any of this works. So I'm sorry if this comes off as a stupid question but how do you make a perfect sphere because the best I can do it this so far! I really wanna learn how to use this program because the things I see people making are so cool! Thank you for any help I can get!

It looks like you extruded a circle and then added fillets to the ends. Instead, use revolve. Add a vertical line down the center of your circle sketch. Then revolve using that line as the axis, select only 1 half of your circle, and revolve 360° to make a sphere

I always recommend learn.onshape.com to beginners. It usually the fastest way to get a good handle on a lot of the basics instead of trial error. Get a feel for how the software "thinks" then you can apply the tools in ways that aren't covered in tutorials.

Revolve as mentioned. Draw a half moon in the sketch.
