Hi there,

Thanks for posting! I managed to solve the issue, the problem was that the tool orientation was incorrect in the tool library - see difference below. You need to correct the tool orientation in the tool library, by opening the tool properties and using the arrows to change the orientation from vertical, to horizontal - see photo below for location. This was difficult to see since there was no tool holder selected when the tool was created.

I've attached the solved file so you can take a look what I've done. If this is what you were looking for please click "Accept Solution".
