      I'm thinking about having my driveway redone and want to make a drawing to invite bids.The driveway and adjacent land has a constant slope of 1:12. Can I rotate the sandbox grid to align with the driveway, rather than pushing and pulling the grid to achieve the same end?

        If it is a constant slope, do you need sandbox rather than a single face/ plane?

        Sandbox "From Scratch" allows you to create a grid in any direction.

          There exists a drain pipe with a spillway that runs under the driveway. I'd like to show some type of modification to that.

            Or do you mean you want to start with a sloping grid? You can rotate the "from scratch" grid up (or down) to 1:12 with the rotate tool.
