Just curious as to what practices you abide to when renaming CAD Models Property Descriptions such as "Fasteners" from McMaster-Carr?
Example:
92196A031 (McMaster-Carr P/N)
(McMaster-Carr Description)
18-8 Stainless Steel Socket Head Screw
4-40 Thread Size, 1" Long, Fully Threaded

I work in the aerospace and defense industry and wonder if there's a standard and/or examples when creating a 3D Printed part drawing?
Standard Notes?
Do you show Dimensions or make them a reference?
Thank you.

I have been tasked to create a FIT CHECK Fixture for a 3D Sketched Pipe (similar to the attached pic). What I did was create a circular sweep along the 3D Sketch path, but they are in need of a U-Channel groove. When I try this, the U-Channel rotates when following the path. I need the path to...
Scenario: We use one standard Drawing Template for Parts and Assemblies. Surface Finish shows in our Title Block.
Does this imply a Surface Finish of 125 for all components on an Assy Drawing? I think not, but the Customer thinks otherwise :/
Is there a standard that specifies the placement...
Does anyone know the symbol for LASER BEAM WELDING? (Cylinders)http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=e8ec1458-1d78-4850-8119-2b955f4bcc7f&file=weld.jpg
I just updated my NVIDIA Quadro K5000 Driver for my Windows 7 Dell T5600 Workstation and now when I move a window it goes transparent. It wasn't like this prior to the Driver update.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

I don’t recall what to tweak in the “calloutformat.txt” file to show THRU instead of THRU ALL.
Also, is there any way to show Decimals in place of fractions for Hole Callouts? (Military Specs call for it)...
I was asked to reverse engineer an old drawing for a Linear Shaped Charge (fractures jet canopies).
In order to accomplish this, I created a 3D Sketch (using XYZ data). Along this 3D Sketch I added multiple Sketch Planes for the profiles (some circles, some odd shaped - the odd shapes will have...

How do you validate your company's CAD models. (Validate = e.g. fully constrained sketches, no mating errors, etc).
I can't imagine you open every file (unless you work for a small company).
Sometimes this question comes up in audits.
Thank you.
First of all I am a beginner with GD&T....so forgive me if I am totally off.
Do all BASIC Dim's emanate from Datum Features? Or can they originate from features that are not datum features?
Thanks...
Hey Guys.
Looking to create my 1st training class here @ work for beginners. Just wondering for those that have gone this route, what topics do you cover?
I am thinking of the following:
SETUP of Drawing, Part and Assy templates
PDMworks SETUP / Checking out and in of files
Sketching...
Anyone out there using Agile's Engineering Collaboration? Not much out there via the www.
The company I work for is in the process of eliminating PDMworks and Intralink.
Anyway...just looking for training materials.

When you have a Dimension calling out MAX on a drawing (1.000 MAX), what keeps the machinist from giving you .800?
Is there a standard for this callout?
Thanks.
Are there methods available (3rd Party Applications, Macros) that would allow you to create 2 PDF's of the same drawing...One PDF that includes a "specified" watermark while the other PDF would be without the watermark (Clean Copy).
Note: We do not use Enterprise PDM

What is the standard for Drill Points / Drill Point Angles?
Is it required on the drawing per the current standard? I ask as the company I work for wants it shown on the drawing. (i.e pointing to the drill point via note and calling it out as a Drill Point Angle).
thanks.
