    Rectangular Ordinate Dimensioned Drawing

    There was very little GD&T used on this drawing. The orientation of the views was correct. I did move/remove some features slightly so as not to share too much detail on the forum for the example. However, I think you get the idea. The datum in the middle view was clearly moved up to center for...

    Rectangular Ordinate Dimensioned Drawing

    Hi, I've uploaded a sample .png file to "Engineering.com" called "Ordinate Dimensioning Sample". Have a look. I did have to remove a lot of lines and dimensions for proprietary reasons. Thanks, Steve

    Rectangular Ordinate Dimensioned Drawing

    pmarc, I don't think I can provide a sample, unless I draw something similar, or water down what I have to make it unrecognizeable. How would I put a sample on this forum. I've not done anything like that on this forum before. Regards, Steve

    Preparing for GD&T certification

    Jim, Thanks for getting back to me. I was only considering the Technologist level for starters. I'm sure once I get that far I can move on and prepare for the next level. The level of intense training for the Professional level sounds as intense as some of the Calc & Diff EQ courses I've had in...

    Preparing for GD&T certification

    Hi, I wasn't sure if I needed to start a new thread or reply to this one that I found regarding GD&T training and certification. I've found my self in the same boat here recently and have been told they I need to get certified. I'm hoping that someone can share with me what they think is the...
