[1.12.1][SOLVED] Is it possible to change the rotation point of a OBJ model?

[ctbe]

Been a couple of hours trying to change the rotation point of the handles in this code's TESR: https://wiki.mcjty.eu/modding/index.php/Render_Block_TESR_/_OBJ-1.12

 

The following

GlStateManager.rotate(angle, 0, 1, 0);

 

rotates around the origin of the OBJ model. I'd like to change the pivot point the rotate method will end up using. I'm originally practicing with this tutorial to understand the concepts to then make a custom chest, but if there is a way to change this it may also help me with another OBJ item I have in which the item rotates weirdly when thrown as an item into the world.

Translate, rotate, translate back.

That solves it. Thanks.
