19. Next you will match the two pieces up so they form the shape in the screen shot under step 8. You will do this using the move and the rotate tools towards the top of the screen where you made all the other adjustments.

20. Tip: The move and the rotate tools are easy to use once you have clicked on a shape for the move tool there will be 3 lines each in a different axis one in the Y direction which is green, one in the X direction which is red and one in the Z direction which is blue. All u do is click on one of the axis and move the object along so it goes where you want it to go.

21. For the rotate tool it is the same but instead of the object moving linearly along each axis it will rotate on the axis you choose.

22. Once you have moved and rotated the objects so they form the figure in screenshot below step 8 click on the object which Path Cut equals .45 for this object. Once you have clicked on it got to the section called texture which is in the same area as where you found the object tab.

23. Click on the square called texture and click blank.24. Next click on the square called color and choose white.25. Under the section transparency and replace the number with 86.
