Summary of the above video:

    Go to Dimensions in the drop menu
    Select Vertical > Neutral axis (x axis) > Midpoint of gauge > place the constraint line
    Edit the constraint so the midpoint is 0.219 in above the x-axis 
    Repeat for all gauges
    Zoom to fit the left hole and all three gauges
    Select Horizontal > Y axis crossing the hole > Midpoint of gauge > place the constraint line
    Edit the constraint so the midpoint for the gauges match the problem statement


Finally, we orient the gauges and create surfaces from the sketch.

Summary of the above video:

    Zoom to fit three gauges to view
    Under the drop menu > Angle > select the longer slanted edge of one of the gauges > x axis
    Input 135 deg into this new constraint
    Constrain the other gauges in the same way from left to right, 135 deg (completed), 90 deg, 45 deg
    Under Concept at the very top menu, select Surface from Sketches
    Click on Sketch 1 > Apply > Generate
