How can I create a spherical shell in COMSOL? Or for that matter any figure that is not one of the basic shapes COMSOL offers.

Is there any way I can "substract" one sphere from a bigger one? (An idea to construct a shell, but don't know how to do it in COMSOL)

Subtract the inner sphere from the outer one. Check out Geometrry -> Boolean Operations -> Difference
