Problem with spin

Could anyone tell me why i get this when I use spin to extrude 2d elements to 3d elements!!?

Base point is defined at the center but the elements close to it are not spinning!!

Also do u you where i can change node tolerance? when I try to create really small mesh, it keep telling me that the mesh size is adjusted to node tolerance! I think the above mentioned problem is because of that node tolerance. I mean the 3d nodes that are smaller than the node tolerance are not being spun.

 

Thanks,

Maysam

    Never mind! fixed it... i was right, the problem was because of node tolerance which reducing it fixed the issue.

    it was here: at the menu bar... preferences > meshing option > node tol.
