    ORDINATE DIMENSIONING PER ANSI Y14.5 1998

    drawoh, Although it is true that much of the machining, if it be by drill bit, laser, saw or hammer is do done using electronic files. Still we in engineering are to follow that old rule which is, Engineering shall not tell manufacturing how to build it, just what to build. Thus is true for PCB...

    pylfrm, Thank you for your response, and also for correctly translating my antiquated reference of ANSI Y15.5 into the correct and modern language of ASME Y15.5. My age has been betrayed. Your point is well taken, that the standard is often difficult to understand, ambiguous, and subject to...
