I think so, yes.

@marmot, re: [your answer](#a1894), Is it the same [here](https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/595476/draw-a-wedge-with-circular-base-in-tikz)?

Anonymous 1123 replying to user 3.14159

Thanks. Too nice.

user 3.14159 replying to Anonymous 1123

A simple version could be  
```  
\documentclass[tikz,border=3mm]{standalone}
\usetikzlibrary{calc,3dtools}% https://github.com/marmotghost/tikz-3dtools
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}[line cap=round,line join=round,
	3d/install view={phi=0,theta=70},
	declare function={R=3;H=4;h=2.5;},
	same bounding box=A]
 \fill[blue] (-R,0,0) arc[start angle=180,end angle=360,radius=R]
  -- (R,0,h) arc[start angle=360,end angle=180,radius=R] -- cycle;
 \fill[blue!50] (0,0,h) circle[radius=R];
 \pic{3d/frustum={r=R,R=R,h=H}};
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}
```

 Can `3dtools` reduce [this answer](https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/462774/drawing-a-tank-with-water-in-it)?

user 3.14159 replying to Anonymous 1123

Yes, IMHO this is much better than guessing hard-coded coordinates and hoping that they are an orthonormal projection or using external tools to get those coordinates.

I use this code to answer [this question](https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/593285/change-direction-of-axis-tikzpicture)

Anonymous 1123 replying to user 3.14159

Yes. Thanks.

user 3.14159 replying to Anonymous 1123

In this case I think the above code is simpler. You can probably (I did not test)  use  
```  
\tikzset{3d/define orthonormal dreibein={A={(0,0,0)},B={(1,0,0)},C={(0,1,0)}}}
```   
but IMHO it is less direct. It only makes sense if the directions are not along the usual unit vectors and/or are not normalized.

Anonymous 1123 replying to user 3.14159

How can I use this syntax   
```  
\tikzset{3d/define orthonormal dreibein}
	\begin{scope}[x={(ex)},y={(ey)}]  
```  
in your code?

Anonymous 1123 replying to user 3.14159

Thanks. I understand your code.

user 3.14159 replying to Anonymous 1123

Sure.

But I can not do like OP'request. Please see OP'comment.

Anonymous 1123 replying to user 3.14159

First is incorrect. Now corrected.  I diveded two ractangles into two triangles. For example: `,
				draw face with corners={{(A)},{(D)},{(P)}},
				draw face with corners={{(A)},{(A')},{(P)}},`

I did not see any incorrect lines. Please tell me which lines you think are incorrect.

You have to run the code twice that the bounding box is correct.
