dimension to OD
dimension to OD
(OP)
i have a part that is bent steel bar.
the manufacturing company uses a different design package. i use solidworks. they would like to have my dimensions to the .... if you were to extend the line of the strait section of bar to where the line would meet the corresponding extension from the strait section on the other side of the bend.
what would be a better (quicker) more repeatable way of dimensioning that point.
