I have this dice model from:
https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3
it's brilliant but it has one problem: the die in it is oriented the wrong way. I want to orient the die 180 degrees so that the high numbers are near the fins and the low numbers are at the front.
How would I go about doing this?

Use the question thread.
On the topic, select the die and separate it, the flip it on the x,y,z axis, flip normals and ur done.

I will not let this thread die, here is result.
Workflow:
>Import to meshmixer
>Select all the connection points with the frames and delete those
>Seperate the shells
>Transform the die to the position you want
>Reconstruct the mesh from the initial delete operation
>Extrude the frame so it gets connected again, and then boolean union

Why is it the "wrong way"? What does that mean?

It's numbered 1-20 with 20 sides. Do you have autism or something mate?

I wanted to do this >>871215
Just turn it upside down. This anon understood. If he could be awesome I'd appreciate it if he linked to the new file, but I understand why he wouldn't so as to not encourage spoonfeeding.
>>871362
Please don't bump I got the information and the thread can die now

ok I read >>871215 and thought to myself "that's so easy" but turns out I am actually pants-on-head retarded.
I'm having trouble selecting the little bits that join the two sections to remove them and when I pull the sections apart I leave holes behind

Fear not young padawan. You need to delete the whole attachments completely. Once you separate the die, just click Analysis -> inspector -> ok. That auto-closes holes. Then you will need to reconstruct via eitehr primitives or extrusions and some blender work to get the exact shapes of how it was.
