Please create "cross sectional surface" and after, use "revolve surface".

You can also create a torus (looks like a donut) and cut it in half.

Hi!

The easyest way to do it is like TAMO2 said. First make a face - crossection of your tube (for example a circle). For straight part of the tube use command "sweep face" - you'll have to create an egde for this. For the curved part of the tube (elbow) use "revolve face" command.

Best Regards

MATEUS
