When authoring Dynamic Componets, it is important to understand how the component's axes relates to the "Position" attributes (X, Y, and Z) and "Rotation" attributes (RotX, RotY, and RotZ). To use this self-paced-tutorial, download the file and OPEN it from SketchUp. Do not import it directly or from the Component's Browser. This tutorial utilizes features only available in SketchUp Pro 7. (aleanbh, thanks for the wrong-icon catch in scene 6, it's fixed now)
