It's a Revolution
by Matthew Mensley Oct 16, 2025
Tinkercad continues to evolve, with a new revolve sketch function launching this week.

With it, you can sketch out custom 2D shapes about an axis which then serves as the origin for a 360-degree revolve operation. The tool lets you create custom concentric shapes in a pinch and is yet another sophistication of the popular web app.

In 2025 alone, Tinkercad has gained a sketch workspace and object grouping, and made export behaviour more 3D print-friendly, as well as effectively removed project size limitations through scale factors. As with any design element in Tinkercad, you add a revolve sketch through the shapes library. Read more about it on the Tinkercad blog.
