nice features… but I don’t get anything. you should explain more slowly and with less accent and more voice articulation….
nice fucking instructions….
I have tried many many times to create a donut. I have made the circle created an axis point but when I try and choose the axis point it has a circle with a cross in it? What am I doing wrong???

Make sure that you are selecting an AXIS and not a POINT or else you will not be able to revolve your geometry. I have not been able to duplicate your “circle with a cross in it”. Can you describe your geometry set up please?
