Yes - I used the bottom left hand corner of the plate as the reference point for the scale-up.

Then I started the scale-down process, one circle at a time, for which I had to be careful to
select the circle (by its center), then the tab (along with any transition lines used for smoothing
the arcs connecting the tab to the circle) hit <enter> and completed the scale-down with the
reciprocal of the scale-up factor, rounded up to increase the machining allowance a little.

After each circle was scaled down, I added a block-circle for the pilot hole for drilling the
center hole, which was necessary so I wouldn't lose track of which circles I had done already.

Thanks,
George
