I work in a customed sheet metal fabricating shop and recently some of our customers have been bought out by a German company. Now all their prints are opposite in regards to views. In the origional prints the center drawing was the face and the drawing on the right was of the right side of the part, but on these new prints it is the left side of the part. It is very confusing to the guys out in the shop. Why do they go at it like this when our way seems to make more sense? Am I nuts?

ISO standard views and ANSI standard views are different. It is just a different method designating how the part would be viewed. ANSI views are similar to unfolding a box so that you are looking at it flattened out. Imagine wrapping the drawing around the part.
ISO views operate as though you are rotating the part onto the next view side. Imagine rolling the part over the paper. Just different methodologies. Most shops in the USA are only accustomed to the ANSI standard.

Why are people in Japan and Great Britain and Australia driving on the right side of the road, while most of the rest of the world drives on the left? Different standard.
Technical drawings go back hundred of years. Until recently, they were never shared as most country kept their projects local, so no one really noticed they were done using different standards until designs started being shared.
Now as to the logic, the German company has a point: imagine that the drawings are projections on a box. Now open the box and flatten it. Where does the left side view end? To the right of the front.
Makes sense that way also.

Actually the word "Blue Print" is no longer significant, we no longer have a blue back ground for engineering drawings or plans. The drawings are mostly in black ink on a white background. About engineering drawings that you are talking about , engineering standards differ in some countries. In the UK and former colonies the British Standards apply in engineering.
Maybe the Germans on the other hand do find the British standards confusing and complain worse than what you are doing. The process of preserving drawings by turning them to look like negatives is time consuming.

DNA is at terrific a crap shoot. nearly all of blacks (different than extra moderen immigrants) contained in america carry a minimum of a few Caucasian DNA. So, mothers and fathers who look very black can produce toddlers with some Caucasian positive factors, and siblings with out any. My very honest, blue eyed blonde brother married a woman who looks fairly interior of reach, yet, is 50:50. Their toddlers look very interior of reach, inspite of being in basic terms a million/4. One has each little thing interior of reach (dermis, hair, and all), different than the main lovable green eyes. So, it could ensue. it fairly works any incorrect way besides; many "whites" contained in america could be stunned to locate how plenty non-white DNA they deliver about. a lot of human beings presently have become DNA tests to tutor their ancestry. they start at $40 9, and you'd be able to get a rather precise one for extra or less $2 hundred. Many surprises there however!
