23.19. - Now we need to add a new concentric mate to align the screw holes

between the 'Side Cover' and the 'Housing'. Since the part is symmetrical, in this

case it doesn't really matter which two holes are selected. If the cover had a feature

that needed to be aligned, then orienting the part correctly would be important. Use

the "Magnifying Lens" if needed to select small faces (the hole's edges can be

used to add mates, too).
