Creating a rotation seed

- [Instructor] In the previous video, we created essentially a rotational rig. And I have a copy of that open onscreen right now. And the key to that rotation rig was a reference line whose endpoint was locked at the intersection of the two center reference planes and then an angular parameter that allows us to flex the rotation angle. Now, we're going to take that rig that we built in the previous video and we're going to make a few modifications to it and create a seed that we can use to create doors with angular rotation. So this is probably the most obvious architectural application of using this rig, is to create doors with, you know, flexible door swings is essentially what that will be. So to get started, I've got my rotational rig open here and let's just make our floor plan a little larger again. Zoom in just a touch. And the first thing I want to do is, if you recall when we started, we built it from that original seed family. Now, that original seed family was used to…
