I'm new to TinkerCAD and am working on the Chess Pawn tutorial. One step is to raise an object above the workplane. How do I do this? I can move the object around, but I don't think it raises above the workplane.

Permanently deleted user Make sure you add a ruler to the workspace, otherwise you won't be offered dimensions for an object.
If you click on an object in the design window TinkerCAD displays the X, Y and Z dimensions of the object. The Z dimension comprises 2 dimensions - the leftmost is the height of the object. The rightmost is the position above the workplace - for a NEW object this will always be zero (when using End rather than centre measurement). You can change that parameter to anything you want, so if you changed it to 5 then the object would be raised above the workplane 5mm.
