3.5 One-View Drawings
Frequently, a single view supplemented by notes and dimensions is enough information to describe the shape of a relatively simple object.
In Figure 3.29, one view of the shim plus a note indicating the thickness as 0.25 mm is sufficient.
3.29 One-View Drawing of a Shim
Nearly all shafts, bolts, screws, and similar parts should be represented by single views in this way.
STEP by STEP: SKETCHING A SINGLE-VIEW DRAWING
Follow the steps to sketch the single-view drawing of the shim shown in Figure 3.29.
Lightly sketch the centerlines for the overall width and height of the part. Estimate overall proportions by eye, or if you know the dimensions, use a measuring scale to sketch accurately sized views. Space the enclosing rectangle equally from the margins of the sheet.
)
Block in all details lightly, keeping the drawing proportions in mind. Use techniques introduced in this chapter to help you.
)
Locate the centers of circles and arcs. Block in where they will fit using rectangles. Then, sketch all arcs and circles lightly.
)
Darken your final lines.
)
Add annotations to the drawing using neat lettering. Fill in the title block or title strip. Note the scale for the sketch if applicable. If not, letter NONE in the Scale area of the title block.
