is there any way to twist and maneuver models? i'm using the gear1 model, to make a sort of "stack' of unused gears, but the problem i'm having is that i can't seem to tilt them at all... i can have either gears on their sides, or gears standing on end, but when i try to rotate them, arbirtarily or upon an axis, i can't seem to get them to budge. i know you can manipulate them via hitting "n", but i need to adjust more than the facing. if anyone can lend a hand, i'd be exce3ptionally grateful ! thanks!

So far as I know there is no way to do what you want short of loading the model into milkshape or some other model editor and changing the angle there.
