I did not realize it was that easy to set the origin to the center of a face or to the center of an edge. I used a much more complex way of doing it when I did the challenge. It involved manually setting the 3d cursor to the X Y Z coordinates and then moving the Origin to the 3d cursor. I am really glad I saw this lecture because Blender has made it really simple to set the origin to the center of some edge or face!
