Ok Im a newbie to CAD but I can't find the answer anywhere else. Using the
minifig parts found in MLCAD I couldn't put the hands to rotate to fit the
arms. Anyone know what I may be possibly doing wrong?

Two suggestions:
1. Peek in the minifig shortcut files (er, uh, those are parts 979 and 980).
Those have the hands in the right position/angle.
2. Search lugnet for previous discussion on this topic. One decent
discussion can be found at <http://news.lugnet.com/cad/dev/?n=4350&t=i&v=a>.
Another is <http://news.lugnet.com/cad/dev/?n=6205&t=i&v=a>.
I thought of a third suggestion while I was writing this:
3. Use the minifig modeller tool in LDraw Add-On to setup your minifigs.
HTH,

I thought of using the minifig modeler in the Ldraw Addon scince I couldn't
find a way with the other two suggestion and saw that it's down. Is there
any other place I can download it from?

Try <http://www.geocities.com/partsref/ldao/>. That's the interim site
for LDraw Add-On, while I'm waiting for my new DSL connection to be
activated.
