import cadquery as cq
# 1. Establishes a workplane that an object can be built on.
# 1a. Uses the named plane orientation "front" to define the workplane, meaning
# that the positive Z direction is "up", and the negative Z direction
# is "down".
# 2. Creates a plain box to base future geometry on with the box() function.
# 3. Selects the top-most Z face of the box.
# 4. Creates a new workplane and then moves and rotates it with the
# transformed function.
# 5. Creates a for-construction rectangle that only exists to use for placing
# other geometry.
# 6. Selects the vertices of the for-construction rectangle.
# 7. Places holes at the center of each selected vertex.
# 7a. Since the workplane is rotated, this results in angled holes in the face.
