## Notes

- The tool is meant for parts designed in the PartDesign Workbench
- The tool depends on the fact that the part is modeled in a body named `Body`.
- The tool uses the current viewport orientation as a starting place. Make sure to adjust this before running the tool.
- The tool currently only rotates about the Z axis.
