i was wondering how you hollow a cylinder. the cylinder was made with the shape thing, it wasn't drawn by myself. i want to be able to control how hollow each side of the cylinder would be, and how to make a cylinder 100 % hollow.

thx very much for your help :trout:

boolean subtract will work, but yes tube is your best bet for simple structures
