- And we're back looking at…our the sketch of the Tumbler.…With the lower portion drawn,…we're ready to do the upper portion now.…And again we'll use Loft…to blend the profile of the lower Tumbler…to the upper part of the Tumbler.…So the information we need from this sketch…is width the upper portion…has a height of 3.25 inches.…We have an outer circle of 4 diameter.…And we'll also be drawing…a polygon in the process.…We'll go back to our sketch…of the lower portion of the Tumbler.…
We're going to start…a new sketch on the top.…And this is where we place our polygon.…If it's not highlighted…go to the bottom of the list here…and select Polygon.…You have Inscribed or Circumscribed.…This case we're going to do Circumscribed.…I'll use a total of 6 sides.…You can use what you want.…And we'll come back,…bring that back there.…Select the center point and then…as you snap you'll have to…feel the snap to the outer edge.…
And once you get it you'll know it.…But we want to snap to that outer edge…of the circle and then select Done.…
