Hi David
 
Thanks for the reply.
 
Here is the contents of the .geo file . I want to extrude this object by rotation and then mesh it both externally and internally.
 
Point(1) = {0, 0, 0};
Point(2) = {1, 0, 0};
Point(3) = {-1, 0, 0};
Point(4) = {0, 1, 0};
Point(5) = {0, -1, 0};
Circle(1) = {4, 1, 3};
Circle(2) = {4, 1, 2};
Line(3) = {3, 5};
Line(4) = {5, 2};

Please advise on the most appropriate/effecient way to this .
 
Cheers
 
Barry
