Does anyone know how to make an easy sphere in Solidworks? I have 2004. I saw something on google that said there is a sphere in the solids menu but had no luck with finding this. I think the fact that we just put a 12 hour day into the car has numbed my brain. Maybe this is a lot simplier than I thought. I dont' know how to revolve very well. Teach me !!! thanks for the help.

hey, spheres are easy!

just draw an enclosed half circle in a sketch, on the straight line draw an axis. then click the revolve button and select the half circle and the axis.....SHABAM....you should have a sphere!

12 hour day! OMG....haha thats nothing, you'll start feeling it when you do the all nighters.

Don't even get me started on the spheres...

Time to make some low-budget gifts for the holidays on the CNC lathe.
