Friends,
There is such a great need for GD&T training. Engineering students graduate with virtually no clue about this very powerful engineering drawing language. I am always amazed when I ask my course Participants about previous GD&T education. Blank stares....:mg: Well, I do not mind and my friend David DeLong would agree that it keeps us busy. Well...right now is a little different.
I am curious what my Fellow Covers think. What needs to be done to promote the use of GD&T in the USA? Suggestions?

Part of the problem is that it's not something that can be learned in the abstract--you need to be able to actually see how the requirements apply to products. I do find it ironic that in general, quality people understand it much better than design people do, and the fact that design people use it without understanding it causes incalculable waste.
If one does not need GD&T, it should not be placed on the drawing! Apply GD&T when a feature has a function or relationship to other features or the mating part.
