	Geometric Tolerances - Lord Mazak's Guide to Machining
		The tolerance is the distance beteen the two lines or planes or, in the case of a cylinder, the diameter of the cylinder.
		For a cylinder the tolerance zone is the space within a cylinder equal in diameter to the tolerance value and perpendicular to the datum plane.
		The tolerance zone is the space within a cylinder equal in diameter to the tolerance value and coaxial with the datum axis.

	Including Geometric Feature Variations in Tolerance Analysis of Mechanical Assemblies
		Geometric feature variations are the result of variations in the shape, orientation or location of part features as defined in ANSI Y14.5M-1982 tolerance standard [ANSI 1982].
		Geometric feature controls allow the designers to specify limits on the form or orientation of a feature on a part, which are not available through the use of size tolerances alone.
		Geometric disturbances propagate through the joints along the constrained directions, that is, in the direction of the geometric degrees of freedom (F axes in figure 8).

	Tolerances
		Once the Geometric Tolerance dialog box appears, the procedures for creating a geometric tolerance are the same in Part, Assembly, and Drawing modes.
		Once a geometric tolerance is chosen, the Geometric Tolerance dialog box will appear with options to change the geometric tolerance type, datum references, tolerance values, and symbols.
		Also, note that if the Type of geometric tolerance is changed, datum reference information will be removed from the existing geometric tolerance or the settings under Datum Refs will become unavailable, depending on what information is proper for that particular type of geometric tolerance.

	GD&T Tips - Basic Dimensions

		The tolerance is the geometric tolerance no matter how many zeros follow the basic dimension.

	Geometrical Tolerances
		Geometric tolerances specify the maximum variation that is allowed in form or position from true geometry.
		The geometric tolerance is, in essence, the width or diameter of tolerance zone within which a surface or axis of hole or cylinder can lie which results in resulting feature being acceptable for proper function and interchangeability.
		If a tolerance of form is not specified on a drawing for a feature, then the feature as made will be acceptable regardless of form variation.

		Tolerance stack-up analysis will require analytical reasoning and a careful consideration of what is physically possible, which is what the end of chapter 6 and all of chapter 7 (as well as all of Chapter 9) is about.
		Once you decide that, if none of the geometric tolerances are factors, you average the MMC and LMC of the features to convert them to equal bilaterally toleranced dimensions to be plugged into the route/circuit being run.
		If a geometric tolerance, such as position or perpendicularity is a factor, you first calculate the inner and outer boundary of the collective effects of the size limits of the feature and the geometric tolerance that applies at that size.

	Geometric Tolerancing and SPC - Calculating position upper and lower control limits [Elsmar Cove Forum Index (Ar)] - ...
		If the geometric tolerance is constant one can predict capability by applying the appropriate distribution function that best fits the skewed true position deviations and transforming the data.
		If the geometric tolerance is variable you can use a method that compares the (USL plus the Mean variable tolerance "bonus tolerance" minus the Mean geometric deviation) to (three times the square root of the combined variances for size and geometric deviation).
		In the case where the tolerance itself is variable (by permitting bonus geometric tolerance relative to feature size) I personally don't reccomend the method sited by Marty Ambrose with what I know of the shortcomings of various methods predicting the capability of processes with variable tolerances.

	Drawing User's Guide: Geometric Tolerances
		Geometric tolerances provide a comprehensive method of specifying where on a part the critical surfaces are, how they relate to one another, and how the part should be inspected to determine if it is acceptable.
		When you add a geometric tolerance (gtol) to a drawing, you can choose the model in which to place the gtol, or create a nonparametric graphical gtol within the drawing itself.
		To add a geometric tolerance (gtol) to a drawing, you may use two, three, or all four pages of the Geometric Tolerance dialog box, depending on the specific characteristics of the gtol you are creating.

		It is impractical to assign standard drawing tolerance designations to these dimensions and, as required, should be reviewed directly with the manufacturer.
		In cases where dimensions are difficult to measure or have unusually close tolerances, the exact method of measurement should be agreed upon in advance by the rubber manufacturer and the customer.
		Three classes of tolerances are specified and must be designated based on the requirements of the application.

	Advantages of HubMounted OntheCar Brake Lathes Compared to CaliperMounted Designs
		Compliance with all refinishing OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) tolerances and specifications requires the lathe to be processcapable and generate the required geometric accuracy of the refinished braking surfaces.
		One calipermount brake lathe manufacturer suggests concentrating on refinishing the braking surfaces parallel to the brake pads even though the resulting surfaces may not be perpendicular to the spindle or parallel to the rotor hat.
		Note that it is not necessary to align the two rotational axes coaxial to obtain a geometrically correct rotor, but most hubmount brake lathe workholding adapters tend to selfcenter when they are mounted to the rotor hat using the lug nuts or lug bolts.
