Got your image - thanks!  Looked through it and compared your drawing to Kozo's. It was hard to figure it out since your drawing had dimensions in different places than his, and after following through and doing the math to compare them, I found it was quicker for me to make a new drawing in Fusion using his dimension order.

And, nope, it does not work for me either! Something has to give, in those dimensions, it just does not add up. So, I don't think its you, I think Kozo made an error in it. The key would be deciding which things are critical to function, and which dimension is not that important. I would say that the 2mm radius/4mm offset are not critical, it looks like that is just an opening in the side of the part, and unless some other part I am not aware of bears on those edges, then just pick one to change and move forward with it.

I agree with Chris.  That opening isn't a critical dimension.  Just make it look good.  Keep the 4mm parallel dimension and the 4mm diameter but move the center of it out a bit.  Or, keep the 4mm diameter in place and move the outer lines in slightly to make them tangent to the 4mm circle.  In either case, you'll have to adjust the rear radii to match.  Just make it look pretty! :)

That makes me feel better :-) cheers

Will do thank you, onwards and upwards :-)
