    Hi all.
    I am a new be to AUTOCAD and do some self-study on how to handle Mechanical
    Desktop 4. Now I have got trouble in a part dwg. I want to draw a bicycle
    rim, hub and spoke. When I come to making all holes for spoke in the rim I
    am lost. There must be a way to array 36 hole on the cylindrical surface of
    the rim? Every alternative I have tried give the error: "Selected axis is
    not perpendicular to the current sketch plane" Any advise is appreciated.

    Thanks in advance
    Bjorn
