MadMango:
I agree with you. Engineerings position is the gage maker made the gage improperly or he didn't know how to read the print. My goal in posting this delima was to make sure I am not missing something.
Thanks for the feedback!

Ansi Y14.5M-1994 drafting standard applied to this drawing
ctopher:
The tube is detailed/dimensioned from the csys end but the gage maker started his design from the center of the part.
All,
When designing 3-d tubing, we start with a coordinate system at one end and develop the geometry to the opposite end. We place a table on the drawing with the xyz coordinates and bend radius to each point. The drawing didn't state the tolerances are non-accumulative.
The problem: The gage...
I am new to Autocad and I don't have a clue as to how to create drawing formats (A-J). I need to transfer drawing information from one drawing (cadra) to another (autocad). Once the format is created, do I export the data from cadra and import into autocad?
Any help with this matter would be...
