revolve not creating a solid (by Ken)
I'm trying to model a wiring channel cover (iu.jpeg in the attachment) in a different size but when I revolved the cross-section it didn't make a solid. I'm sure I'm missing something simple, but I just can't see it. Any help appreciated.

In the archive:

surfacewiring1.slvs - the 2-d shape that extrudes (successfully) for the side extensions and revolves (unsuccessfully) for the center
surfacewiring_clip.slvs - a wedge that hold the piece to the adjacent piece
surfacewiring_entry-2.slvs - the extensions on both sides of the swept center section
sweep90-2.slvs - the swept center section that doesn't give me a 3-d object
surfacewiring_PART90-2.slvs - the center and 2 extensions

Thanks!

You have unconstrained points in the construction lines that you are using in sweep90-2.slvs . Constrain these and the revolve will work. See modified file attached here.
