Welcome to Onshape @sam_henderson422!
If your part is still in the part studio, you can rotate it with the Transform feature.
If you put your part into an assembly, you can just click it, then rotate it around with the little arrow manipulators. If you want it to animate and rotate kind of like a wheel or similar, you can mate it within the assembly using the revolution mate.
