New to CAD Models

Good Morning! I'm new to using CAD models. I only used them in class. I created a manual plane, line, point alignment to make the model aligned with the machine. The problem I'm having is when I change my alignment or workplane, my points are no longer aligned with my model. They are offset and mess up my dimensions. Do I need to continually redo the manual alignment to keep everything where it should be or am I missing something else? Thanks in advance!

  • I think I'm going to have to start a new program since I wasn't always working in program mode. As my program is now, everything works perfectly fine and all dimensions are good until I change from A0B0 to A52.5B90. Once I do that, I can't select points from the model. It either shows them in incorrect placement, like hits going through the circle, or if it looks correct, when I execute the circle, it crashes into my part.
