Jay, just wanted to let you know this c-hook pulled my butt outta da fire. hot job,weird axis, hole axis to the rescue!!! job done on time and customer happy. here's to you sir,

does anybody besides me remember the clear plastic cube that had the axis gnomon located in the center of the block. When one was learning how to use planes you could refer to the block by turning it around to find the right plane you wished to work on. any info greatly appreciated.

thanks guys i will try pfmea

do any of you guys have a risk assessment tool for quoting jobs. i am looking for a system that allows us to assign a number to a feature on a part so we can accurately assess the risk factors when making a part. right now i am running into situations were they demand a quick turnaround for a quote but then balk when we run into production issues because we didn't take the time to accurately assess the part.

Jay, thanks for the help..

Jay, i did not recieve your email, guess it's an old address my new one is [email protected]
