Create Basic 3D Solid Primitives

The document discusses how to create 3D solid primitives in a 3D modeling workspace. It describes how to switch to the 3D modeling workspace and then explains how to construct basic 3D objects like boxes, cylinders, cones, spheres, pyramids, wedges, and toruses by selecting a base point and inputting values for dimensions like length, width, height, radius, or tube radius when prompted.

Create 3D Solid Primitives:

Switch to the 3D Modeling Workspace

1. On the status bar, at the bottom of the drawing area, click the Workspace
Switching button.

2. On the Workspace menu, click 3D Modeling.

* The 3D Modeling workspace is displayed. The Workspaces icon in the status bar
indicates that you are now in the 3D Modeling workspace.
