Hi again Peter,

Again, you want Object revolve to make the basic ring shape - revolve a rectangle to make the ring.

Alternatively, you can make an ellipse, set the surface type to poly, surface->make hole, then extrude.

Making holes in the resultant shape is more difficult and might be best done with Jeff's boolean plugin (AC3D licence required).
