Your barrel (or do you mean drum like what chemicals are sometimes shipped in?) can be created in at least three different ways. -Revolve a half profile -Subtract one cylinder from another -Use the SHELL command on your cylinder ------------- "Humans have a strength that cannot be measured.

 Chemical drum in profile, revolved 270 degrees, and revolved 360 degrees. Visual style: Conceptual Both drums are solids. ------------- "Humans have a strength that cannot be measured. This is John Connor. If you are reading this, you are the resistance." <<AutoCAD 2015>> |

AutoCAD has a SHELL command that has nothing to with the OS. Look it up in the Help file if you don't believe me. http://tutorial45.com/the-shell-command-in-autocad/ ------------- "Humans have a strength that cannot be measured. This is John Connor.
