In this example, the starting and ending angles were not changed. As a result, your first hole will
be placed at zero degrees. If you were to look at the face of a clock, zero degrees will be at
3 o’clock. Without a specified ending angle
MILLPWR
will space the number of holes entered
evenly around a full circle. If a counter-clockwise direction was applied to the hole pattern, the
second hole of our five hole pattern will be between 12 o’clock and 1 o’clock. The holes contin-
ue around the circle as shown below.
