    line bore of multiple plates

    here is the pic. just a FYI I am not an engineer just a drafter. I have had some training with GDT but no where near as extensive as you guys. the concentricity frame used to be on the right pointing to the first plate. thanks

    line bore of multiple plates

    hello all, My question is about boring out a hole through 6 plates spaced 3" apart. The plates are 1" thick with the the two end plates 6" thick. On the old drawing I am updating they have a diameter dimension with a g7 tolerance. The diameter dim says to BORE 6X DIA5.0 G7 +0.xx/-0.xx and on...

    Hydraulic Hose Material

    I think I have it. I know the ID and OD of the hose so can get the volume in one foot and since I know the weight per foot does that give me the density?

    Hydraulic Hose Material

    Is there any way to create a material for a COTS hydraulic hose? Specifically I am trying to get the weight. All the manufacturer gives is the pounds per foot of hose. Do I have to convert that to density or something to create the material, or does Solidworks have a way to input this? My...

    I need an old school routing pro's help.

    Howdy All! Here is my situation. I am currently making lots of hydraulic hoses and need to find out what I am doing wrong. My company doesn't have the add-in for routing so its all old school. What I do is to make the 3dsketch using lines and fillets in the upper assembly. I then mate the hose...

    Dimensioning Very Large Objects

    I have 150 1x3 and 2x4 inch parts to dimension that are spread across 130 feet. If they were spread out more evenly I think It would work but unfortunately they are not, so I would end up with a lot of break lines. Is that OK on a drawing view? On some I may have as many as 10 breaks. I did...

    Dimensioning Very Large Objects

    Hey all, Thanks for the info. I think I'll go with the match lines, I may look into the grid thing as well. Now to figure out if Solidworks has them or do I just need to make them myself. Also I tried the break views but that only works for the two ends as the small objects on the two middle...

    Dimensioning Very Large Objects

    Hi all, My question is regarding dimensioning very large objects (130 feet long). I have to dimension many small things on the larger one but I can only show a small section per D size sheet. I can only show about one fourth per page after changing scale so you can see the edges of the smaller...
