Move body along its own orientation, not global orientation

This seems so simple, but I can’t figure it out. I want to move the body in blue perpendicular to its orientation (denoted by the red arrow) rather than along the global axes (which is what the white arrow buttons provide for.)

How do I do this?

Move the center gizmo of the Move-Rotate tool to an edge.

Thank you so much - I had no idea what that little circle did!

Most welcome. Not sure what it is actually called be we all seem to reference it as the ‘gizmo’ on the forum. BTW, welcome to the forum!
