I made a mesh circle now I want to add some thickness to it so it looks like a wire or string, not rope.

A mesh>circle has no faces, so it is not renderable.

Also, without any faces it cannot be used with the solidify modifier to give thickness.

You might want to use a curve>cirlce instead, so that you can control the thickness with the bevel setting.

  • $\begingroup$ This is what I do, "circle", "alt +c" - curve from mesh, modifier = subdivision surface, curve object data - fill = full - depth = 0.020. $\endgroup$
