fluted column template help

[supershingler]

is there a way to draw lines at a true 30 degree and 60 degree angle in the designer layout?

the following project is what i have so far but i would like to add a hole at 30 and 60 degrees from the center point that intersects with the inner circle, almost like a clock layout only with more holes.

im making a jig to flute some round columns for a fireplace front i am building.

any help appreciated

Hi Kendall. I opened your mpc, drew a line segment with snap to grid enabled and then changed the angle to 60. It worked. Tried changing it to other angles and that worked too. I think maybe in order to get it lined up with the other parts, you would have to make sure snap to grid was enabled and have a true center of the project laid out with lines. Hope this helps.
