"The components cannot be moved to a position which satisfies this mate. Cylinders are not concentric. Distance between centers is .00011022in."

Note the magnitude of the number. The mating parts are a sheet metal tube and a 5" diameter soft rubber elbow, for crying out loud.


Sorry, just had to vent.
