Measuring the intersecting overlap of two cylinders

Hello!

I have a quick question regarding how to measure an overlapping area of where two cylinders, one being at an angle, with a CMM.

(Just a quick pre-emptive note, What I am uploading I have personally made to reflect the concept of what I need to inspect but has absolutely no resemblance to the final part)



As you can see I have a tube-like structure with a small radial indent. In Zone C6 there is a dimensional call out of 0.060" I'm having trouble figuring out how to get that dimension with a CMM. I can do everything else easily except for that. I tried creating intersecting lines and circles but I can't seem to get it at the exact location the print wants.

I can check it easily with a sine bar and height gauge but I'm wondering if it's possible to check it with PCDMIS.

I've attached a larger copy of the print and a step file if someone can help me take a crack at it.

Thanks in advance!
