- Click the cylindrical surface of the part. The surface appears orange when you move
the cursor over it to indicate that an OnSurface sketch relation will be created between
the sketch point and the cylindrical surface. - The hole should be positioned from one end of the cylinder. Using the
SmartDimension tool, click one flat end face of the cylinder and the sketch point. Place
the dimension and give it a value of .300 inches, as shown in Figure 17.5.
Locating the point angularly around the cylinder is more difficult. You can use several
methods to do this, but this example shows one using construction sketch geometry.
