Is there a way to convert 3d surface objects to 3d solids object. I created a revolve object and it turns to surface and I would like to union it to a extruded object but does'nt allow me. any help will be appreciated. Thank you.

Google "closed mesh to solid".
There are several possibilities shown.

M2S.lsp (google that too) will convert open mesh objects.

You revolved a series of lines most likely, or an unclosed polyline. Convert your lines to a polyline (check out BOUNDARY - it is a great command for walls) and make sure its closed, and you will end up with a solid after you REVOLVE.
