Solidworks 2022: Modeling & Drawing with GD&T

I discuss aligning the datum reference frame from a GD&T drawing to the default top right and front planes in solidworks 2022.
I model the part and then detail the drawing with model items, and then apply GD&T.

Finally waiting for this type of content. Please make practical videos for how design engineers can assign GD & T symbols with TSA. That will be a great way to learn more.

Hi, thanks so much! I have another video just like this coming soon. Thanks for the feedback.

[@orangerubicone]

Thanks for giving us these great videos, Dean. They are really helping me.

[@RDeanOdell]

You’re so welcome! Thanks for watching!

So good seeing hoe efficient you use SolidWorks! I really don't understand why GD&T is not taught in every engineering program. I've been working as an engineer for 6+ years and its ridiculous how poor drawing skills are. We have no idea what we are doing! Of all things taught, learning how to make technical drawings is the absolute most practical skill. And its not taught! Sorry for the rant, but not knowing GD&T or proper drawing techniques has limited in every interview and every job I've had.

your videos have been helping me a lot in enhancing my technical know how, really appreciate your work man. Would love to see similar projects where you model thing in solidworks and then perform GD&T, its really immersive this way

Great video. Don't forget the "3X" text added to the small hole diameter dimension...

[@RDeanOdell]

Thanks!

[@longdo6694]

It is so helpful. I'm looking forward to wonderful videos in the future.

[@ginotacobell3098]

Happy New Year Dean. Wishing you all the best.
I always love your videos. Just a small tip on this drawing. Because there are just 2 views on the drawing, TOP and RIGHT, so people may crash their head "are these holes THROUGH?". :)

Great video!

Thanks so much!

Wonderful .... thank you very much :)

Professor, I request you with respect to do GD&T video series on ISO method. Greeting from Bereket from Netherlands

[@RDeanOdell]

Hi, unfortunately I can’t help much with ISO right now. I don’t have the GPS standards, so I can’t speak on the subject with any authority. Thank you for the input.

I do not understand how you have fully constrained the part with one plane and one axis. 3 Translations and 2 rotations have been constrained. Could you please explain? Thank you

[@RDeanOdell]

Hi,
I explain why in this video:
GD&T: Simultaneous & Separate Requirements
czcams.com/video/nPtlXgTO-OE/video.html

[@jcorcoran6686]

how is the profile oriented to the small holes

[@RDeanOdell]

Hi, simultaneous requirements apply here, so the profile and the holes are considered as one pattern.

[@hugorodriguez6835]

@@RDeanOdellis that why a tertiary datum wasn’t established??

[@RDeanOdell]

Yes

[@joaopedrocilentolopes4923]

cool dude

[@RDeanOdell]

Thanks!
