Let's use Position to perfectly align our three parts. What we'll do is copy the X and Y Position values from the base, and paste them into the X and Y position values of both the pole and the bulb.

1. Click on the Edit icon, then on the base, then on the Object tab.

2. Highlight and copy the X Position value.

3. Click on the pole, then highlight the X Position and paste in the value from the base.

4. Click on the bulb, highlight the X Position and paste in the value from the base.

5. Repeat the last four steps, but this time copy and paste the Y Position value from the base to both the pole and the bulb.

Now the three parts are exactly lined up and centered. Of course, you don't want to copy and paste the Z Position value, because you want the three parts to be different heights.

6. Adjust the heights of the three parts as needed.
