From your description, it sounds like you're using the "prefix" option with two completely different objects instead of with sliced cross-sections of one object. I get this impression because you said to make two cylinders, called obj01 and obj02, and then select obj01, apply skin with the obj prefix. In this case, it'll try to skin between obj01 and obj02. If you really want more than two cross-sections in a skinned object, just loft it (or set the creation parameters) with more than 2 cross-sections. If I'm misunderstanding exactly what you're getting at, you'll have to simplify this to a simple case for me and zip up the .prj file with an explanation, and I'll try to get to it this weekend. – G
