One of the biggest growth industries since lockdown started uses centimetres - bicycle frame manufacturers. But they are all lunatics anyway, or at least their marketing departments are. laugh I'm sure anyone who knows that ten bob is the same as fifty pence (notwithstanding insidious inflation) is happy to use inches or millimetres as a norm. Sorry to jump in months later but couldn't resist!

During my functioning life I just at any point met first point projection once. I needed to deliver a sketch changing a complicated spine and didn't understand the first drawing created by a German firm was first point projection. Luckily when the rib was set-up on the dance drill nothing checked out and I was called for.

Never expect a drawing is third point projection. In the event that it isn't you can deliver a dreadful wreck.

"point" projection?

I've never seen that term - only ever first and third angle, projection. Does "point projection" differ from those?

Many drawings have a note naming the projection and giving a cone-and-circle diagram to prompt you.
