Gary, I contend you can only do this accurately when the bottom circle has a rotation of 30deg (or -30deg) so that its tangent point gets to just touch the top circle edge while the vertical alignment guide is showing. The horizontal guide is an outcome of the final position of the bottom circle is is not a guide until after the event.

Here is my approach.
Don't look if you still wish to present your own solution: RGB Circles.xar
My estimate is 11 Steps.

Rik, thank you. either my bad or Xara's?
I used Text Inside on all the circles but didn't expect past versions not to render at least the circles.
This should work: RGB Circles with Text.xar

The new file is OK, Acorn.
And I like your solution.

Acorn, your solution and mine are very similar. You basically used snap where I used nudge ... I generally don't trust the magnetic snaps - although to be fair, they are better than they were.
