Trying to make a simple shape
-
I've just started using Sketch-Up and to be honest I probably won't need to use it very often. However I have already made a couple of shapes for puzzle making projects and successfully got them 3D printed. I have read some tutorials but I am still a newbie and I have got stuck on a simple shape that I need.
The shape is a 60mm diameter circle which has been pulled / extruded 80.578 degrees around a point on it's edge. Another way to describe it would be - Imagine a torus that has a very tiny hole in the centre. Now imagine it with no hole at all. Now cut a slice of it out like you would slice a cake. The slice has an angle of 80.578 degrees and both sides are circles from where it has been cut. That slice is what I need.
I have tried methods involving creating two circles and then using the follow me tool but nothing seems to work. For this kind of thing I am not really sure what I am doing and despite watching tutorial on the follow me tool I am not getting anywhere.
Thanks. -
