True position using z axis and angle

rtlawlor
I am measuring this part right now this is a cylinder about 3 inches tall. The od is dat-b. The top plane is dat-a and dat-c is a slot in the center of the part. The part has 4 counter bore holes along the side of it every 90 degrees. Here is a picture of what the result looks like, and i know its wrong.
Do i need the od dat to be a cylinder or a circle?
Does it matter if its a constructed cyl or an auto cyl?
My dat c is a constructed width, should it be the line instead?

I added two pictures if that helps

please help!!

  • rtlawlor, try doing a search of "polar radial TP" or "TP PR and PA" or the like. There are a lot of great threads discussing polar radial positioning.

    Why is there only 1 feature in your TP? There should be 4 holes, or at least 2 'thru' holes.

    You might want to try attaching just a smaller section of the report.

    I would use a mid-line for the slot. A slotted datum is really the mid-plane/line/point of opposed parallel elements.
