Why is it that if I group objects together and then exit the program
and come back the pieces are magically gone?  I mean I'd like to group
things to gether but I don't want to end up losing everything I've
done.  So far I've learned that the you should always save at least
two copies of whatever you're doing.  My other question is are there
any tips on doing angled building?  I've been making instructions for
my Rapier model and it's fast becoming a pain in the ass due to all
the strange angles of pieces.  Take a look at my site and you'll see
what I mean.  Mainly on the back end.  So anyway I'm wondering if like
say I put a right wing piece down and put it at a certain angle, is
there a way to add a left wing piece and get it to mirror the angle of
the right wing?  I tried some experimentation with entering in the
values manually but that didn't seem to work very well.  Any help
would be greatly appreciated!
