1/ Select the Rotate tool
2/ Free rotate the part until the axes are roughly the way you want them
3/ Hit the space bare to show the common views cube
4/ Select the corner nearest you to fine tune the alignment
5/ RMB and select Redefine Isometric
6/ save as your template
Unfortunately, in the idw environment, the axis setting doesn't follow
through so you have to get used to the front view being the top and the
bottom view being front and so on.
