Hinge Mate, I don’t use hinges!
Well me either, but I sometimes do add toolbox components in a assembly and here this feature could safe you some time. By the way this is a SW2009 feature so if you have not upgraded, well why not?. There is a restriction to this feature, you can not mate your component to two different features, but since I have the feel that this hinges-mate went a little under the radar at the roll-outs and I wanted to also add Solidworks stuff to this block, I am hoping that if I’m not showing, then at least remind you of this feature, enough talk lets go.
1) A block with a counterbored and an a toolbox component.
