Primary datum as a sphere?
Primary datum as a sphere?
(OP)
Imagine the a tie rod end.
The sphere component has a shaft protrusion.
For functionality in the assembly, the sphere is the primary datum.
If I called out the diameter of the sphere as the datum would be it be a center point? Or a set of perpendicular planes?

I understand it is not a plane, but it is the most important location for assembly reasons.
