I'm trying to rotate the holes around the torus slightly (clocking) but haven't been able to make it happen. Direction, please.

Can you File>Export your *.f3d file to your local drive and then Attach it here to a Reply?

 

How much is "slightly"?  Do you have an angle specification?

Sorry, I don't know where the *.f3d files are (other than archile, wherever that is). 

 

As to the amount of rotation I figure 12 degrees either direction. On the drawings the blue origin line enters the center of a hole. I need it to be centered on the space between holes.

 

Thanks.  Ron

Click on the down arrow on the File glyph.

Then select Export...

The Desktop would be a good location to save the file that is easy to find.

It took me a dozen views or so to understand what all was happening on the video, e.g. faces, not bodies, but then the seas parted. Now I'm happy, happy, happy. You fellas probably already know it, but man does this help! I don't know if I'd have been this happy if I'd found a hang over cure when I was in college.

Well @etfrench really did it the hard way.

If you had attached your *.f3d file then I would have shown you the easy way.

Thanks TheCADWhisperer. I always appreciate any instruction / help. I think I've attached the .f3d file you wanted (albeit some time ago).
