How do I Project the .307 diameter to the plane at 9 degrees?

It seems that, no matter what I try, the diameter projects parallel to the plane. The deeper I measure the diameter, the farther it is off centerline in the opposite way of the .080 dimension. (see attachment).

How do I get the diameter to project to the plane along the 9 degree axis? I can measure two diameter, create a line but then I cannot get the True Position at MMC that the drawing requires on the .307 diameter.

Alignment is rotated 9 degree.
XY and Z are 'zero' at port centerline/face.

Thanks again.

What i do is to measure 2 circles and create the line, then create a plane on the face of the port and project the line on to the plane and create a point, use variables to save the measured value of the point, I also use a varible to save the measured value of one of the circles. I will then use those variables to create a "Generic" circle, then all you have to do is output the true position of the generic circle using MMC or LMC as required.

OK. I did the circles, line, project to plane stuff.

How do I use variables to...
A)save the measured value of the point?
B) save the measured value of one of the circles?

Thanks again.

One thing I'd like to add is make sure you are creating a 3D line.
