If an object does run parallel to the base surface but not quite to the y-axis, and you therefore create a work plane perpendicular to the centerline and then create a bounding box, then the bounding box becomes skewed. I noticed that when I wanted to trim something with a makeshift template and it failed with this pipe.

Hi MP,

It looks like you did a cutout of the pipe and the cutout was not perpendicular to the pipe.
Look at the 2 red stripes in my image.
If I draw a construction line below it is parallel with the line above so it looks like that the cutout was not perpendicular with the pipe..?
And when did you draw the bounding box, before or after you created the work plane?
