Thanks in advance. Very much a newbie here. Im needing to create a small thimble or cup shaped part. 11.96mm at bottom, widening to 12.36mm at the top, with a height of 18.6mm. must be hollowed out. The issue im havin right now is that im not sure how to set top in mm, its only giving me the option to change degree of edge.

Thanks for reading ands possibly helping with a little guidance.

Wayne

Draw 2 circles the sizes you need on your sketch. One inside the other. Then exit sketch. select the bigger circle and then select the move tool and raise it up 18.6mm and then loft one circle to the other.

Hi,  
It is always good to start a project with a sketch and dimensions. This is often useful in the progress of the project.
