Remove a revolve as a circular pattern from part.

I'm creating tapered holes. Drafting doesn't work because the axis varies for each one.

There are to be 11 tapered holes around one central hole. The middle one was easy revolve and remove.

I managed to make one side one but had to extend its ends because of the tilt (manifold problems too small to see)

But now I can't make a circular pattern of the removal around the central axis.

Reading other help for the same problem I made the side hole a new solid and then Boolean subtracted it. But I still can't be allowed to make the circular pattern.

    Hey Gavin. Welcome to Onshape. In Revolve 3, change the revolve type to Remove. In Circular pattern 1, change the pattern type to Feature rather than Part and select the Revolve 3 as the feature. - Scotty
