Measuring centerline of Rib with different angles on each side

Any advice on the best way to measure these ribs on the following part? one side is 35 degrees, and the other side is 40 degrees. Trying to check the centerline of the rib. I have tried taking two points on the rib equal Z and Y and create a midpoint but haven't got the location to show close to tolerance. .150 wide and .030 tall.
Thanks.

  • I would make line-line intersection points on each side, and for a 2D 0.150 distance, and either loop or pattern that as desired. Obviously, you'll need a small stylus, but they're available.

    Depending on how "bent" your entire part is, you may want to take a rough sample hit before the lines to aid navigation. That can be either a formula in the target field (edit window), or a mini-alignment before each part of this pattern.
