Solid of Revolution: 16 Washers

thingiverse

This is a solid of revolution modeled using the washer method approximating the area between y=x and y=x2 about the line y=1.25. This created a bowl-like object which is curved on the outside, straight on the inside and with a hole at the bottom of the bowl.
