Hi guysThis is my last drawing and I'm having problems drawing the 80 diameter circle at the bottom of the box. Looking forward to some responses.thanks uploads/380818/3D_Modellingsmallpdf.com_1.pdf

Can't imagine how you could have a problem like that. Circle command and the M2P command modifier to locate the circle exactly in the center of the base and you're done. Do the same for the top circle then use the LOFT command and pick the two circles. The result will be a solid you can subtract from the cube.
Hi John I managed to get the drawing right as per your instructions. I've done the flatshot I just can't get the coordinates right to rotate it to the 3D drawing

Without a copy of the drawing I can't advise you on what to do to fix the problem.Why Flatshot and not Base View (a.k.a. - View Base)?
The drawing in the 1st post
Cause flatshot is used to convert 3d to 2d

[QUOTE=curtie]Cause flatshot is used to convert 3d to 2d[/QUOTE]Flatshot does not convert anything and it is not the only method for extracting 2D views from 3D models.Your options are:FlatshotSolProfSolDraw/SolViewSectionPlaneView Base

If one is unfamiliar with a program and the general terminology that goes with its use then "wording it wrong" is not unusual.
