    Change X Y Z?

    hey everybody hows it going? im very new to bobcad and i had a problem come up i can not finger out. i drew out a valve cover that has raised letters on top. when i got ready to generate the ruff cut for the top i noticed that the xyz was wrong. i want to start on the top where the letters are but its generating the tool path to have the part vertical not horizontal. so i was wondering if there was an easy way to change the axises without have to redraw the hole thing? i appreciate everyone putting up with me... thanks

    well not much help on their site but i did manage to rotate it and set a zero. now i cant figure out how to machine the bottom of it then the top. i guess change the machining plane to generate another tool path maybe? this stuff is drivin me nuts!
