Revolve Remove Issue

billy_mcgivern

I'm attempting to design a compressor disk and when attempting to revolve a cut out section and remove material from the base solid, I cannot select the base solid as the merge scope. I'm not sure what the issue is as I've checked my constraints and was able to complete this operation on other CAD programs. Could someone take a look at my part and help me understand my issue? I also tried adding the cut section and then removing using Boolean but could not select the base solid as my tool body.

Should be listed under "Billy McGivern" as owner and the file is called "Compressor Disk".

Thanks ahead of time!

Your first revolve was a surface instead of a solid.  There's a checkbox on the revolve feature to control this.  I've corrected that issue and shared the model.

Thanks Daniel. I noticed that my solid was listed as a surface in the bottom left corner of the screen. I spent more time than I'd like to admit fixing that error.
