Hey all, I’m trying to learn how to make a mod. I started with a simple weapon model, and really can’t get that working.

![Problem](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/stonehearth/original/3X/e/2/e22c1f46fc9cdddebcd7c4be71915d923fe6274d.png)

The weapon appears in the wrong position, I read a lot of topics and the say some solutions with VoxelShop, but I cant quite seem to get it right, even if I position the model in the centre, when I open the file again it appears in a different position.  
Is there some trick with the options to export? I tried with options 2 and 5, just 5 and I can’t seem to make it work. If paying for qubicle is the only way to do it, I’ll limit myself to enjoying everyone else’s mods,

When exporting in the Voxelshop, check only the 3rd and 5th checkboxes.  
Make sure that the middle of the handler is exactly at 0,0,0.

Thank you! 😊 Yes, that was the idea though I think some of the colors messed up. I’m just a Rayya’s boi and I thought it could look cool.

The colors look fine to me in your picture tbh, curious if you have more plans to make stuff 🙂
