The purpose of this blog is to share information on ASME GD&T and ISO GPS standards. It will also discuss real-life tolerancing issues and dimensional engineering applications, practical solutions related to the topics of engineering drawing standards, GD&T usage, inspection, gaging and measurement design analysis, and tolerance stack-ups.. This blog will become your go-to source for information on standards and all things about GD&T.
The blog will contain a variety of informative / interactive features such as: discussions, surveys, quizzes, teaching methods, tips, notices of standards meetings and publication of new standards.
Hello Mr Krulikowski congratulation for your new blog.
Thanks, I appreciate the kind words.
Congrats Mr.Alex
Thanks. I appreciate the kind words.
I look forward to following this blog. This is a great idea.
Thanks. My goal is to make this blog the definitive source for GD&T information.
Congratulations Mr Alex..Looking forward for the valuable information from you..
Thanks, I am excited about making this blog the go-to resource for GD&T
I don’t know if this is the place for this but where can I find a hard to find thread dimension? I’m referring to a 7 7/8-16 N.S Class 4 fit?
Chris,
I did a bit of checking in the thread standards I have at hand and was not able to find an answer to your question. You are correct; this is a hard to find thread specification. Another source that may be able to help you is to post your question on my GD&T / Dimensional Engineering group on Linkedin. The URL is https://www.linkedin.com/groups/3613820
If I find an answer, I will post it on that site.
I have engaged in Standards decades ago. And even developed a spreadsheet to produce thread specifications with gage specifications as well. It is a long time in my history, however, I know you can find this thread specification from industry standards.
Great idea! Congratulations, Mr. Krulikowski!
Thanks, I think this will be a good source for GD&T information.
Will you be discussing more of current issues on this blog?
Sure! If you have any specific topics in mind, let me know and I will try to cover them

I would like to see a blog about getting Certified in GDTP.
Steve, I will add certification to the schedule for a future blog. Thanks for the suggestion.
Thanks, great article.
Greetings Alex,
I hope the GD&T Blog is a hit.
To help get you started…I’d like to discuss how we should handle independence of size and form controls…as one of the first topics. If an OEM has a directed supplier @ the tier 2 level…and we’re the tier 1…
Industry practice is to put a size control on the cylindrical feature…yet the OEMs…all of them it seems…require measurement plans that omits checking certain types of form error.

Hello Mr. Krulikowski
I look forward to following your blog. It is timely as we are about to kick off a new project. Will be working with a design house in Bangalore India. The company is HCL and they deffinetly need help with understanding the application of GD&T.
How does one signup for your blog?
Hi Gordon
You sign up using the “Sign up for blog alerts” box on the upper right of this page.
You should find a way for users to assign standard legend keyword to a blog to add to what will become a 10,000 blog post archive. This way another user can select only CONGRATULATIONS posts and/or PROFILE blog posts that the user is interested really interested in reading.
For example, The Tec-Ease GDT tips page has all tips cross referenced in a standard legend. Pick POSITION from the legend and only 25 related tips from the entire directory appear, not 10,000.
