In NX is there a way to find the true top and bottom of a hole that is not normal to a surface? I am currently using Vero VISI and there is a "draw axis" function. This will put a circle at the top and bottom of the cylinder that would make the hole. Any suggestions?

Extract virtual curve should give you what you want.
