Drawing Checklist
Use this to ensure completeness of your drawings. Remember that your drawing should be easy to understand
and specify everything one needs to make or assemble the design. If you think something may be ambiguous,
add additional details and/or notes for clarity.
   Views are arranged in the correct (first/third-angle) orientation
   Hidden lines are shown except where they obscure the view
   Tangent lines are omitted unless needed for clarity
   All features of the part are shown in true size in at least one view
   Location and size given for all features
   Features are fully-defined but not over-defined
   Critical dimensions are toleranced
   Non-critical features provided with looser tolerances
   Dimension and tolerance precisions match
   Precision of non-toleranced (i.e. using title block tolerance) dimensions are chosen appropriately
   A tolerance stack has been performed to ensure that all tolerances selected are appropriate
   Dimensioning to hidden lines is avoided
   Center lines/marks added for revolved and symmetrical features
   No dimension lines are crossing
   Dimensions are placed outside the view
   Quantity (i.e. 6X) noted for patterns of features
   Use of TYP is unambiguous
   Reference dimensions provided where needed or requested (i.e. overall dimensions)
   Diameter symbols added to cylindrical bosses, holes, and arcs greater than 180 degrees
   Radius symbol added to fillets, rounds, and arcs less than 180 degrees
   Material (alloy, heat treat, and specification) noted on drawing or referenced in BOM
   Coatings noted on drawing or referenced in BOM
   Location for coating masking (if any) noted
   Critical finishes noted
   Notes indicating non-obvious critical/sealing surfaces that must be free of scratches
   Basic edge break requirements are conveyed with a note instead of dimensions on the face of the drawing.
   Marking instructions and location provided if required
   Geometric dimensioning and tolerancing applied where needed
   Basic dimensions are used where needed
   Have I given the machinist everything they need to make this part?
   Is this drawing clear?
