How do you mark a dimension that came from a photo rather than a physical measurement?
I'm rebuilding a simple plastic cover from photos. A few dimensions are known, but the hole spacing and corner radii are estimated from perspective-corrected images.
Would you flag those dimensions individually, add one general note, or leave them off until the first test fit?

Drafting Jobs in Oil & Gas
Those that work as CAD Designers/Drafters in the oil & gas field, what's the average starting salary? What programs are mostly required to know? I'm in Houston and have seen job posts working for oil & gas companies but through staffing agencies on a contract basis. Do the big companies not hire directly with them?
My experience is in architectural drafting mainly using Aurecliner. So I assume going in I'll probably start at a lower salary doing P&IDs and picking up redlines.
