i tried the same object a few ways, redrew it aligned with axis, finally got rotated object. no idea why some tries didn’t work.

hi Ron,

just halve the profile, and it will work: [https://support.shapr3d.com/hc/en-us/articles/115001415014-Revolve](https://support.shapr3d.com/hc/en-us/articles/115001415014-Revolve)
