Now this is not a shell, it's actually just a cut, and I use an Offset Entity, and a couple other Reference Geometries to create this. So let's go ahead and see how we create this one part here, so I'm going to open up 2.2, and click on this face here, and go ahead up here, and start a sketch, you can start here or you can just click on the face and click on sketch. Alright, now while I'm here, I want to use all these lines around the perimeter here, and a quick way to do that is just click on the face, and click on Offset Entities. And I'm going to say one millimeter, so 1.0, and I want to reverse that so it's going on the inside, and then click OK. That just converts all those entities and brings them in.
