I normally model the parts and assemblies to hold together well if I
anticipate design changes, and to make the assemblies easy to build and
hold together. The drawings are made for manufacturing ease. We do not
use gtol for our own designs, only for customers designs, if they do.
So in house design intent comes thru on the assembly/weldment drawings.

One thing nice about inserting model items is being able to shift-drag
them from view to view as needed.
