Fab pack
One folder for the shop.
Drawings, NC files, laser files and lists, checked part by part against the model before they leave. The summary page says what is in the pack, how much steel it holds and which warnings the checker raised.
Everything comes from the one model. Change it, and every item below is re-issued.
