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!
It looks like the vectors for pnts 1-3 are kind of wonky. it looks like the points are taken traveling in a Y- direction from the XYZ theos. If that is the case, Line1 would be a line that exists in the same direction, which would mean your alignment should be rotating Y- about Z plus. Basically it looks like your physical hits are not being taken in the same vector as the features are set up to be taken in. This could be causing confusion with the manual alignment? it looks like it is corrected in the DCC alignments that follow, but might be worth a shot to try?

The alignments are both using the same features in the same way. The difference is I use the first alignment to align my part to model and correct my trihedron.
