Create Axis in Centre of Slot for Constraining Fasteners

Recently one of the members of the Micro Concepts Technical Team stumbled upon an interesting workflow for creating an Axis through the centre of a Slot to aid constraining a fastener in an Assembly.
If this is something of interest or something you do a lot, please follow the steps below:
  • Firstly create your Part, complete with Slot, then select the Axis tool from the Work Features panel on the Model TAB of the Ribbon.
  • Next, right click in the workspace somewhere and select Create Plane from the flyout menu.
