Kind regards.
I hadn't even thought about it. Thank you

In this case, if you don't use the "Library Functions", I strongly suggest that you use your turntables in an assembly (*.sldasm) with your mechanically welded.
This will also probably facilitate the work of your boilermakers and your bills of materials will be readable (count of parts).
Kind regards.

Which was not for me, not a
