Cannot Find Drill Depth

I am getting this error when drilling into the face of a cylinder. What does "Cannot Find Drill Depth" mean?

Thanks,
Mark

Hi,

can you upload your file?

Hi,

This means you are drilling "in the air" there is no material to drill.
So, either you are creating a hole in hole, or your drilling in the wrong direction (away from the face instead of towards).

best regards

Pieter

Here is the file. I'm trying to drill 3 holes in the cylinder face. (If you haven't noticed this is an example from one of the training manuals).

If you can get it to work, can you take a screen capture vid of the solution?

Thanks again,

Mark

hmm, you were right about "drilling into air." I (you) seem to have fixed the problem. Thanks!
