Reader Reviews
Somebody just wrote a very useful book to translate the ANSI Y14 standards for SolidWorks drawings. I always thought the ANSI setting in Document Properties was a little miss leading. Our VAR says this makes the software flexible and users develop their own templates!!! OK. So now it is my job to develop our new templates, a task given to the new guy. My company developed their current standards based on ANSI Y14-1984, so in twenty years we finally took another look. Finally a decision was made to update to SolidWorks and update our engineering documentation practices. We looked at purchasing ASME Y14.1 - Y14.5 1994 and then I read this book. The authors go thought the painful process of relating the document properties to the Y14 standard. This was a real time saver. We create ten - twenty sheets per drawing. Who makes a drawing with just three views? The authors also provide the work arounds to create Y14 drawing views, not on the Drawing toolbar such as detailed section, half section, revolved section, removed views and secondary auxiliary. I actually emailed the publisher about a question on the Bill of Materials item order. The author email me back with an answer and a solution to two days. That was great.
