    Coil Relay Overvoltage

    Thank you so much for the responses. Yep, this relay is just switched on and off by the on board transistor and I understand what you're saying about the fly back diode. Maybe it's hard to say without knowing more of the system, but would you advise a small resistor in series with the coil or...

    Hey there, I'm still learning proper datum structuring, and I have a simple box that has it's outside wall surfaces tapered. Should I still use these surfaces as a datum? I've attached the drawing PDF, and I am also wondering how to dimension 2 revolved cuts that overlap and can't be seen... Any...
