Creates an infinite cylindrical surface of the given radius around an axis through center
along direction.
It has no ends and cannot be drawn; cut a face from it with
shapes.face.faceFromSurfaceAndWire or place wires on it with shapes.wire.placeWireOnFace
after making a face.
The radius, a point on the axis and the axis direction
The cylindrical surface
Reads the underlying surface a face lies on, without its boundary.
A face is a bounded piece of such a surface; the surface itself extends beyond the face, which is what lets a new wire be placed on it and cut into a different face.
