    How to set up a volume of solid of revolution about a line other than the x axis

    Hello folks, I was wondering how to set up a volume of the solid of revolution about a line in the form of a line equation. if i wanted to find the volume about a line of x/4 would I simply find it as v=pi*integral (f(x/4)^2)dx or is there a method I'm missing all togeather?
