(except with the correct positioning and orientation).




I've gotten this to work, but I'm curious about this as a special
case. With the primitives above, I can rotate them about their
Y axis to orient them correctly, *or* I can mirror or reflect them
across their X and Z axes, to 'flip' them into place.

Is there a preference for flipping vs. rotating?

(...) If you're BFC'ing, you should rotate them around Z or X, since they are on the bottom of the part. Generally, with BFC, avoid mirror-moves. Stick with rotating, translating (ie, moving), and scaling. Steve (22 years ago, 2-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Yeah, Sorry, I meant ring. I actually wrote ring the first time then changed it. I guess I should stop thinking so much :) (...) Well, I just have the search path in my program setup to search 'p/48' before it searches 'p' so I'm picking them (...) (22 years ago, 1-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad)
