I use Hole Wizard Legacy Holes a lot to show step drilledholes. Specifically to show drilled and reamed/jig ground holes fordowel pins. I do it this way to show both dia.'s in one feature. Itwould be nice to add these hole sizes to a Favorites pull-down likeall the other Hole Wizard holes.
I actually use this method to show dowel holes in 2 ways. First, Icall out the small dia. as the drilled hole and the larger dia. asthe dowel dia. as in a press fit hole. Second, I call out the smalldia. as the dowel size and the larger dia. as a relief drill on thetop side as in a slip fit hole. There are exceptions, but these arethe general usages.
So, is anyone else in agreement with me? I've submitted an ER.Could use some help.
I also use a lot of thru tapped holes with a relief dia. drill fromthe top as used with a jack screw. I don't know of a way to show arelieved tapped hole except to draw it as 2 features concentric. Ordraw it as a counter-drilled legacy hole, but then I don't get thetapped hole callout.
