Set object orientation
"Set object orientation" - like the "Create Orientation" operator, but changes the orientation of the currently selected object. It should work in edit-mode: Select a face => "Set object orientation". Now the object has the same axis as the normals of the face you had selected.

Use 3D cursor snapping and work with it`s orientation.
Reworked Ori for 2.8 dropmefiles.com/avVab
Or do you mean object`s locals should be switched to new custom orientation? I agree and in 2.79 we had Ori addon.
* @ Vyacheslav * I like your script. It is almost perfect. I just think it could be better if we don't need to make the transform orientation first. The script could do that too. And yes, it could be nice if it moved the origin to curser too. I hope it makes sense. I will try to hack it, but I am not sure I can make something useful in python.
* @Rune Arleth * i am not a programmer, so I only adapt it to 2.8. IDK how to grab local orientation of selection. Here updated version: dropmefiles.com/02mGb now it do not show error, if basic orientation selected.
Origin to cursor — is vanilla function.
* @ Vyacheslav * Link is down, would you like to share it again? :)

It is the version from 21. February though.
* @Rune Arleth * Table './pasteall/paste_submissions' is marked as crashed and last (automatic?) repair failed
Link seems to be broken too
