Solidworks parts are to be named MS-#####MS#####-ShortDescription where #### is the part number. Part numbers are tracked here: MSXII Part and Drawing Numbers

If a part contains only sketch geometry or the part will never exist in real life (ex. driver model), name the file MSXXXXX-ShortDescription. 

Avoid saving any parts in the 10xxx (i.e. 10000-10999) range in the part and drawing number registry. These part numbers are exclusively for fasteners. Custom manufactured parts are numbered 00xxxx. 

Fasteners are numbered 10xxxx.

Bushings are numbered 20xxx.

Off the shelf parts are numbered 30xxx.

Fasteners/Hardware

Fasteners should ONLY be in Deveoplment\Fasteners. Fasteners are tracked in the part registry, and EXCLUSIVELY USE part numbers MS10xxx (i.e. MS10000 to MS10999)

...

Dynamic assemblies should have their own unique part number pulled from the part registry. Components of dynamic assemblies should follow the MSXXXXX-Description standard from above for parts that will never exist in real life. be named SNGL-PartName(A - Z), where PartName is the name of the dynamic assembly, and A-Z are alphabetic suffixes that denote subcomponents of the assembly.

Example: the coilover is saved as MS00045-Coilover, and the damper and strut are saved as MSXXXXXSNGL-CoiloverDamper CoiloverA and MSXXXXXSNGL-CoiloverStrut respectively.CoiloverB

Solidworks Drawing

Solidworks drawings are to be named identically to be named DWG-#####-ShortDescription where #### is the drawing the part/assembly they reference, even those that do not reference a physical Midnight Sun part. Drawings which reference a component with no assigned Midnight Sun part number (i.e. geometry files, driver models, etc.) shall be assigned a VC### drawing number. For all other components, the drawing number in the title block shall be identical to the Midnight Sun part number. Drawing numbers are tracked here: MSXII Part and Drawing Numbers. PDF versions of drawing should only be committed to GrabCAD when the drawing is ready for release and should have the same name with a -R## suffix to indicate the revision number.
