    I am redesiging my template for general machining in Europe and all
    the Iso world. I was wondering what is the mostly used tolerancing
    system there. I really like the number of digit method (x.xx
    =plus/minus .01, x.xxx =plus/minus .005, etc).

    They seem to use a system based on size of the dimension (from 0 to 6
    plus/minus 0.2, 6 to 30...) and type of dimension (radius, sheet
    metal. Is it acceptable to just convert the ansi system to mm and
    keep all the other stuff (drawing way to put dimension iso instead of
    ansi)??? And I prefer the ansi dimensionning system, it looks
    nicer(may be it is just a matter of getting used)

    Is there just one way of tolerancing in ISO world?

    Normally this type of tolerance is a General Tolerance for dimensions
    without individual tolerance indications
