    Does this look like decrimped to you?

    Machinists! Isometric/orthographic drawings!

    Re: Machinists! Isometric/orthographic drawings! Looking at the front view gives me an idea of how far up the last block goes. The right view again provides no extra info. Finally, drawing the isometric view of the three parts combined gives the final answer. The tougher problems...
