  • So basically you need to lose 4mm from the calculated length using old method.

    Old method works by taking 1/2 length of flange1 boltref + 1/2 length of flange2 boltref + wafer + extra gasket.

    solution
    Create new flange in the spec identical to the normal flange but add :wafer to the speco name. (The :wafer will be stripped off by Isodraft)
    Give this flange a different STYP and a Boltref with the correct No & Dia bolt but a length of 132mm
    Replace one of the flanges in design with this new flange
    Bolt calculation should then be 70mm + 66mm + 191 + 3 = 330

    I think I remembered that right.
