Best Practices for Individual Part Files
Best Practices for Individual Part Files
(OP)
Can someone recommend a method for storing individual parts within an assembly. We have a part library that contains standard parts. The problem is that we modify many of these parts within our assembly. Example: A 200mm angle may be cut to 180mm. If I reference a 200mm angle then modify it, the standard library part would be changed to 180mm. What I have been doing is copying all of my parts to the directory of my assembly file. When adding standard parts, can I grab them from my library then write them out to a new directory; therefore avoiding the risk of modifying my standard parts.
Thanks, Joe
