So I'm starting with my rotation seed and the first instinct might be to just simply go right to creating an extrusion and use this reference line to help me build a door panel extrusion, sort of a long, thin extrusion. So let me do that. I'll go to the Extrusion command and I'll just sort of start tracing this object. And then kind of create a small rectangular shape like so and then perhaps right here, I want to reduce that thickness just a little bit.
