We’ve re-released three of our most popular mechanical engineering references: GD&T Cheat Sheet, Weld Chart, Tap and Drill Chart

They’re all available to download, with a few small updates based on feedback from readers. Thanks to everyone who sent corrections and suggestions. Engineers pointing out tiny details is, fortunately, a feature of the profession.

We’ve also turned each one into a digital reference page in the Drafter Toolbox.

So if you need to check a GD&T symbol, weld callout, or tap drill size, you can now pull up the full reference in your browser and bookmark it for later. No PDF hunting required.

Or download the updated versions if you prefer having a copy nearby. We won’t judge the laminated printout taped to your monitor.

We’ve been working on something new for mechanical engineers, and we’re getting close to putting it in front of a few people.

We’re looking for a small group of early beta testers who spend a lot of time thinking about assemblies, manufacturing, and how parts actually come together.

If that sounds like you, and you’re willing to try something early, poke holes in it, and give us candid feedback, we’d love to have you involved.

Even a short conversation would be genuinely helpful as we shape the product.

Thanks,
The Drafter team
