PUBLIC RECORD
U225X

This conversation emphasized that an assembly is not required just to create fabrication drawings. A drawing can use Select Bodies or Relative View to isolate one body from the master model, then add projected, section, detail, dimension, and balloon information. A weldment cut list can organize identical items, while Save Bodies is reserved for cases that genuinely need separate released part documents, reuse, configurations, or an assembly deliverable.
