Extract

In his technical note on “Dimensions required for Inspection” (July Journal), Mr. G. A. G. Saywell stated that drawings calling up various machined fittings often lack any reference to “practical” measurement by which the operator, toolmaker and inspection department may “set out” and check the work concerned. This statement does not really do justice to the draughtsman who, in preparing the detail drawing for manufacture, has to give attention to all aspects of manufacturing.
