      I am wondering what kind of "pot" is that....must be a strong one 😆
      🤣 🤣 🤣

      Duga,
      You can move geometry relative to...clicked point by typing <X,Y,Z> values followed by [Enter]
      Or to absolute locations by typing [X,Y,Z] followed by [Enter]
      (this is relative to the unchanged origin)

      Or use the arrow keys or [Shift] to constrain a move on one of the axes, a line or even a face.

      Or send the pot by airmail 😎

            I've drawn this shape:

            http://s1d3.turboimagehost.com/t/1097378_pott_shape.jpg

            I'd like to know how to remove a piece to make room for the lead (top) and the same at the bottom..

                "Edit -> Intersect -> Intersect with model"

                See all of my SketchUp models here.

                    This shape shows as if this is perfect center; well, it isn't.

                      Hu Duga,

                      With that particular shape you can also turn on hidden geometry (View menu) and delete the unnecessary parts.

                      Gai...

                        I'd like the shorter part to become the lead..
                        Now it is satisfactory:

                        http://s1d3.turboimagehost.com/t/1100285_removing_the_piece.jpg

                        The 1st question is how does one re-adjust the axes.
                        The 2nd question refers to the circle object. I'd like to move the indicated part.
                        Tnx
