Isn't pivoting a pad casual?
A pad, set up by means of a sketch on the XZ_Plane, is now to be rotated about 20° around the axis that passes vertically through the centre of the circles in the sketch. The effect should be that the rear end of the tube is turned inwards. I have now tried several variations.

Re: Isn't pivoting a pad casual?
It's not clear to me what you want. If you use an AttachmentOffset with a combination of translation and rotation the rotationtranslation is done first. To reverse this you need an additional DatumPlane.

You can modify the sketch attachment.
The center of the 2nd sketch is attached to the inside vertical line of the 1st sketch.

Of course, fixed my post.

Re: Isn't pivoting a pad casual?
It took me quite a while to get a result. Even when I was working exclusively on the sheet metal bonnet. When, after achieving the first supposed result, I made the base plate (rubber plate) visible again, it was like a punch in the stomach.
. .
It was not supposed to be like this. I had a reservation with the 1st solution suggestion (Turbine_Blechhaube2) after studying it, because the Z-axis, to which everything should relate, should always be concentric, because then it wouldn't cause any trouble when stacking the other elements. My efforts in the meantime to find an independent solution were not successful. With the next suggestion (Turbine_Blechhaube3) I then also grabbed it, because the author obviously understood what I was aiming at. The picture above disillusioned me. I tried to enter the same value for the X-axis in the body sheet metal bonnet, with which I reached the solution of my problem for the object shaping. Since both values are positive, from a mathematical point of view it makes me doubt whether I have understood the FreeCAD axis model at all. My entered offset works, but I don't know why.
. .
The joy was short-lived, however, because I realise that I don't understand the axis model at all. In the illustration below, there are a few data (Axis) with which one can manipulate. But what is their meaning? I haven't yet figured out the many possibilities that exist for the world of axes.
. Who can give me a tip where I can read up on how to proceed specifically? The procedure with Try&Error is just annoying.
The actual number of mouldings is much larger, that would extend the size of the file allowed for the forum considerably.

The sketches are attached all over the place, not good...

The z-direction is always orthogonal to the attachment plane. If you attach something to XZ plane then local z direction is global x direction, and the other axes act accordingly.

Hello @Bance
You may well be in a position to judge. Alone, I lack the correct view on things. ""Check dependency graph for details."" Where's the damn beast I'm supposed to be looking for? I'm already trying to study the system and work out the solutions. But in some places I have to pass, I must have slept in the lecture (-‿-).
