Thank You!

The CAD model that I received had the Z axis "sideways" and I thought I just had to define the surface to machine by clicking on the desired "Z face".   I eventually used the MOVE command to rotate Z in the desired direction and then there was no need to define the Z axis in the setup.

That is confusing though to me since it looks correct and I would expect it to work that way: Define what surface to machine.   I am learning...

That brings up a related Question:  If I need to machine a second surface, do I have to go back and rotate the Z axis again.  Will the part not be also moved in sub-assemblies if I mess with the origin?

I need to watch your YouTube videos.
