You'll need two 4-4ndis.dat's and a 4-4cyli.dat for this. The ndis
("not-disc" I think) gives you a square with a round hole through it. One of
these on the top face and one on the bottom face connected by a cylinder will
give you the hollow opening. Then you fill in the top and bottom faces around
the squares.
Hope this helps, I don't have the part in front of me.
