  • Top Radius and Bottom Radius: The top and bottom radii, in meters.
  • Height: The height, in meters.
  • Radial Seg.: How many sides. Few sides make a prism.
  • Corner Radius: Rounds the edges of the caps.
  • Corner Seg.: How smooth the rounding is. With 1, the corner becomes a straight bevel.

For a hollow pipe, use the tube. For a tip, use the cone.
