Bad GD&T prints

Link to print https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PPWkIpGwM39PPnNyxP7Zwe0Rr7QkaRxh/view?usp=sharing

Only sharing part of the print for nondisclosure purposes, but there was a lot wrong with it. Thought I would share this since it has been so annoying for me.

They put a position dimention on many of the faces when they clearly needed/wanted a surface profile.
They also had an M modifier on almost everything including: datums that are planes, flatness, and one distance dimension

Currently talking with my contact to see if we can get this straightened out.

Anyone else deal with some bad GD&T?

  • I work on the front end of this now. Being an estimator I'm the 1st one to have contact with the customer. You should see the shock on their face when I just tear holes in the prints that they create...... Then when the realization hits that I am correct when we start to discuss the nuance in the print mistakes and I start referring to pages in Y14.5 and I am actually certified in Y14.5 ( I dont speak ISO ) only to find out that they don't even have a copy of the standard... Priceless......
