question about master model

question about master model

question about master model

(OP)
I am doing my drawings on my current job using the master model approach

We reuse a lot of out designs by cloning them to a different job number and editing them, the one I'm doing now is close to 1000 components

Once I get all my drawings done i will have a pile of drawing files that are not linked to the main assembly

now when I do my clone of my main assembly, how to I get the drawings over so I don't have to re create them

Thanks,

RE: question about master model

If I understand this correctly I think you need to do the clone of the main assembly first, instead of last.

RE: question about master model

Hi Brian,

You could create an extra assembly file.
By drag and drop you can add all your drawing files into this one.
When you Clone your main assembly, add the assy file containing all your drawing files as well.

Best regards,
