I struggled with this one as I couldn't get the dimension to cross the mid line. Realised I was dimensioning to the vertical of the model not the construction line. As soon as I changed this it worked.
Yes, yes, yes - add those zeros before the decimal point! When I am teaching physics classes, I count off if my students omit it. One reason is that many of my students will move on to a medical profession, and many (most?) medical/pharmacy schools will kick out anyone who makes that mistake even once. An order of magnitude too much or too little medication can be lethal! What is the standard in mechanical engineering?
I was adding the material manually at the end and I was still adding it as a metric measurement, so my result was waaaay off. Once I saw the mistake I made I was like DUHHHH.. LOL

Awwww yeah nice job! I liked this one - it was a little simple part, but there were still some great onshape lessons in this one!

The ASME standard states that for inch units you do not use the zero before the decimal place, but for millimeters you do.
@@kateleipold4838that's so interesting. Thanks!

Awww yeah - we all make those mistakes sometimes!
