this is done with blend cut. Your first sketch is the star. Toggle the sketch and put a point in the center of the star. Set the depth of the cut and it is done. Here is a model in WF4 for your friend to study.2012-04-09_075552_star-cut.prt.zip

Its the toggle section that you need to notice in order to get the Blend function to work properly.

I tried to do it with the new Swept blend tool (new to WF3.0) and was not able to get the divergent point portion like the old school Blend tool.

He needs to revolve the section and then cut the shape.
