In this course we're going to look at something a little different, creating technically accurate 3D printed parts.

If its done around the point 0,0,0 --

Edit -> Duplicate (click the options box)

Under Rotate X/Y/Z -- enter how much angular offset you want each copy, number of copies: 360/angular offset.

if it snot done at 0,0,0 Just center the pivot of the origional object you want to duplicate wiht the center of the tire, and duplicate aroudn the axis accordingly as per the above described method..

you can change the pivot point by either hiting your insert key
or typing
EnterEditMode;
into your command line, case sensative.
