[QUOTE="edge, post: 531147, member: 5030"] Actually IMO, two decimal places would be preferred unless you had a precision way to find the centers....and hand held calipers measuring a ragged paper hole don't get you there! By showing two decimal places you are acknowledging a lesser precision. As a side note, engineers with no machining experience will often dimension holes to four digits when they only need a clearance hole. Depending on the print tolerances you would normally need to hold a 4 decimal hole into the ten thousandths of an inch whereas a clearance hole may only need to be held to several 0.001's or even 1/64 of an inch. edge.
