Draw a circle with a radius of 6ʺ (150 mm) on the work plane of the hosted point, as
shown in Figure 12.62.
It can be a little tricky drawing the circle onto the active work plane of the hosted point.
Therefore, use the Show Work Plane tool to display the active work plane for the point.
This will make the process of sketching the circle easier.

appropriate subcategories. This will ensure that you have full control over the elements
from a visual and graphical point of view. For details on assigning geometry to
subcategories, refer to Chapter 15.
