Hey guys - fairly new to solidworks and I need some help
on modeling a part.

http://markbissondesigns.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Wire -Fab.jpg

The process I started with was created revolved piece for
the top part of the wire, then a plane .55" below the top
plane that I could do a swept boss/base to after creating
the circular part of the wire on that plane.

However I was unable to to a revolved base on the
circular part as seen below..

The bottom part does not need to be exact to the drawing
as I'm just using this 3d model for an animation of an
overall project and this plays a very small part.

Let me know if I need to explain more as I understand
this could seem vague to some people.
