  • Part 1 of a series of videos presenting a free online machine shop program (lessons) for novice machinists. More specifically, this video introduces us to the basic principals of mechanical blueprint reading. These videos are to be watched in conjunction with my particle videos as well as my little quickie video answers. All my videos can be found on my website THATLAZYMACHINIST.COM it's free and always will be! Thanks for watching! Marc L'Ecuyer

    The bowl method is absolutely the best I have seen to describe 3rd and 1st angle projections, and, I saw it here first. Thanks for an illustrative and easy to understand "I'll remember it forever now" demonstration. I was just about to dose off ( I am viewing at the end of a blueprint reading day) when I heard my name called out, which brought me to attention. A good teacher can even call to consciousness even the most sleepy student! hehe
    It is seldom that the symbols for which projection is displayed is actually put on the drawings I see although one usually can figure it out from the drawings. It is however, nice to see a drawing made by a draftsman, complete and professional. A super video and I look forward to the next in the series. As always, thankful and appreciative, jim (still) in Greenland.

      Hi Jim, I have received many comments on the bowl method for explaining projections and I must admit that I don't remember if I learnt it from someone or if I made it up? If I did make it up, I just might be a little smarter than I thought? If anyone out there (other than my former students) has ever herd of the bowl method, please let me know, it could help to reduce the swelling of my ego! Thanks for watching Jim and until we write again, Marc L'Ecuyer

    I thank you for all your videos. I am almost at the age of retirement and want to start building a home machine shop. As an aircraft mechanic, I've always admired those who worked in the machine shops and have always wanted to have my own as a hobby. By the way, the "First Angle" view makes more sense to me on a drawing. It represents, to me, like I just pushed the part from its top edge and it fell to that position. If I push the top over to the left, it falls the way the drawing represents it. I don't know, it seems easier for my simple mind. Once again, thank you for being a great instructor and teaching with the passion you do!!

    Marc, I enjoyed all four info videos on Blue Print Reading. Engineering drawings is what there being called today. So I hear!
    I was hoping to see more. This time explaining how to find missing dimensions, and the process of the mathematical formulas to discover there value. For example, on center, and off center holes equally spaced holes, bolt circles Find a length by using a radius. Find a length using trigonometry. Also touching base on sides that represent each other. More shops are going with planning instead of floor prints. We are suffering out here from the dumbing down we are being dealt. Thanks Marc, I love what you’re doing. Thanks for your help.

    The analogy using the wall for first (1st) angle projection was confusing. But once you demonstrate using the bowl it was more clear visually.
    I think of 1st angle projection as if you were physical holding the part and you have to rotate the part to see each side/face.
    For example, think of the simple shape like the rectangular brick or the Rubik’s cube. Hold it so one side is facing you. Denote that face as the front view. Now rotate it up to see the bottom side of the brick/cube. That view would now be draw above the front view even though it’s the bottom face of the part.
    Now, return to the front face again. This time rotate the brick/cube down to see the top side/face. This top view is drawn below the front view. Return to the front face/side again. Now rotate the cube the your left to look at the right side/face. This right side is now drawn to the left of the front view.
    For third (3rd) angle projection. Imagine the same simple shape of a brick/cube. But this time the brick is fixed in position. You cannot rotate, pivot, or turn it. To look at each side/face you need to shift your POV. Imagine it as a box shape with flaps/lips. Each flaps is hinge to the primary view (front). To see top side lift the top flap. That view is drawn above the front view. To see the right side you pull right flap towards you. That is drawn on the right side.
    In summary,
    1st angle projection is view from one POV. The first person. You rotate the part to see each side. The POV is fixed.
    3rd angle projection is view from multiple POV. most commonly 2-3.
    The part is fix but the POV changes.
    (Hope my summary is more clear than my detailed explanation.)
