      Hello!

      I am following along on the lessons for the rocket fin.  I enabled 3D cursor, duplicated my fin, and then tried to rotate it into place, but it opens towards the back.  See here: https://gyazo.com/6f0026cf60d284b2e4cdbcda361e92af 

      What am I doing wrong?

      Thanks!

        Looks like you accidentally moved your 3D cursor out of the center! To set it back to the world origin, press Shift + S in the 3D Viewport, and select “Cursor to World Origin” from the pie menu that pops up.

          Grant, 

          Hot dog! That was it…something super simple, but I just didn’t catch that when you did it.

          Thanks!

            I had to do  Rotate -Z -72 – and then it went around the rocket.  Not sure why I had to do it different, but it worked.
