Okay, so the first thing we'll do is just with the Move tool just spin this through 90 degrees and then we can double click. And with the Tape Measure tool find that center point. So off to the edge and then drop in and it should find it and make sure we're coming up on the correct axis, so green in this case. And that will be say, two mil. That's okay, that's all we need for that. So they're two mil to the center. And then we can bring this out. Now we've also got to put little guides on these bits. So, either side. So again, double click and Tape Measure tool. I will hopefully find the midpoint, and can come out to say, two on that side…
