I'm looking for some ideas on how to measure any single blade from a group of four with minimal modifications. I would prefer to not have 4 sets of curves, 1 for each blade to keep feature editing to a minimum, i.e. changes to strategy apply to any of the 4 positions like a pattern would do.

I am doing a 3d Best Fit on the blade, so that would need to be portable, too.

As I am writing this, I am contemplating creating a simple 3d best fit base alignment, instead of a standard base alignment from the hub features. In other words, I would do a manual alignment on the front side of a blade blade I want to run, like a start alignment, then let a second 3d best fit alignment run on all 4 sides of the blade run in a loop for the curves.

I think I may have answered my one question though I would still like to hear from the creativeness of the forum.

Cheers....

Zeiss T-Scan Hawk or ATOS-Q with GOM Inspect - might even need Blade Inspect.

I measure a lot of rotational parts with complex geometries and no clocking feature. Make a curve best fit alignment from one blade. Then measure all other blades back to it.
