How to round edges of a solid (by Rob)
Excuse me, I'm kind of new at this... say I start with a circle and extrude it into a disk. How do I round off the edges of the disk, so it looks more like a tire or donut?

Hello Rob.

Solvespace is very straightforward, there is afaik atm no possibility to use blends/fillets/chamfers on edges.
Use a rounded profile and do a LATHE-operation instead of extruding a circle.
