Stanley Hooker "Not Much of an Engineer"

[India Four Two]

G,

Thanks. You've answered a question I was going to post. I had never heard of first and third angle, but after reading about them, I thought "Why waste a year? Why not just teach the craftsmen how to use first-angle?"

My recollection from Hooker's book was that Packard needed more precise drawings in order to produce interchangeable parts.
