Now what we need to do, is develop those little circular regions with the hole in into a tube going into the wall of our prefabricated unit. Now the way to do that is actually pretty quick and easy, and then what we can also do is make sure that it is actually a hollow tube, and you can see through the wall to the other side. We'll cover that in a moment though. First thing we need to do is create the 3D solids that form the tubes. So change your visual style to 2D Wireframe, and you'll see that things are a lot easier to see. We're going to zoom in on the blue polyline here which is the piping conduit that we're going to create. So go up to your Layers panel,…
