I've found the easiest way to do this is to build the entire model along the x,y
and z axis at 0 and 90 degree angles, as seen in the link:

(Baseplate included for clarity)
I then select all the pieces in the model and rotate the entire model along the
z-axis, -4 degrees in this example.  This should work for 1496 just fine, not
sure about 6851.  The result is this:
