How to QC a diameter with taper

Not necessarily CMM related. Lets say I have a part with an OD with a size callout of Ø1.500 +0.001/-0.000 and the surface has a taper of about 0.002 over the length of the part. At the one end it measures 1.4997 and at the other end it measures 1.5012. How do you report the size of the dimension?

  • Unfortunately I am the whole engineering department and qc department at my company. They hired me on 1 year out of college without anyone here to train me. Last engineer quit before I started! Basically have to do and learn everything myself. It's a small place though about 100 employees. Truly grateful for your guys help when I post stupid questions!
