christian thx for the response.  i originally tried that but the
jiglib representation didn't account for the hollow cylinder.  i have
a ball falling down and should fall into the cylinder but it actually
bounces off the top area where a cap would be.   here's my code:

var awayCyl:Cylinder    = new Cylinder({material: new
ShadingColorMaterial, segmentsH:1, segmentsW:15, height:50, radius:30,
y:35, openEnded:true,bothsides:true});
view.scene.addChild(awayCyl);

var jcap:JCapsule                       = new JCapsule(new Away3dMesh(awayCyl), 
30, 50);
    jcap.movable                        = false;
    jcap.y                              = 25;
    jcap.z                              = 100;
    physics.addBody(jcap);

would you know why this wouldn't work?  i couldn't get much info about
jCapsule when i googled it. so it's all trial & error.  sorry if this
is a numbskull question.
