Old thread I know.  Necro.


Any help here so I can better understand this would be much appreciated.


I am working on defining a mpp model.

All of the references vary.


For example Rafal's3d model has a couple of extra holes on one profile.


The flat file, in the location with 5 vertical holes. the 4th is a 10mm hole, but the photos above show about a 3mm hole.


Also, and most important, does someone have a shot down the tube, showing the orientation of all the holes? Could someone post that picture?


The schematics have some weird calculations that don't really work.


The simplest way to set up this diagram is 360 degrees rotation.


Each set of holes / slots should have a center point. (or multiples for a slot) that is measured from the top. With a rotation in degrees.


For example.  Lets pretend the 5 vertical holes is 0/360.

There should be a view with all those holes centered.  Measured from top.  And diameter. 


The next diagram would rotate x degrees clockwise to the next place there is a hole center. Measure from top. Diameter.


All the way through every hole on the pipe.


There are some holes in the diagrams that have an offset from center. But that would create a non conforming angle on the cut. Meaning the edges would be slanted. This makes for a judgement call as to where it actually is. Like the vertical slot next to the horizontal slots. Or the small rivot holes that are 2mm off center.


In cad, its a little easier than the normal free programs like fusion.


Anyway, the primary question here is does someone have a picture of a MPP shot down the center showing the orientation of all holes in comparison to themselves.


I will make this file available when I am done.


Thanks,

Mason
