Create part templates

1. Create a part, using an existing template.
2. Set the default units of measurement.
3. If needed, change the grid setting and the sizes of the origin work planes to accommodate the average part size.
4. Create any work features, sketches, or geometry to include in every new part file.
5. Define commonly used parameters or link to a spreadsheet of parameters.
6. Set the properties for the file.
7. Save the file in the Autodesk\Autodesk Inventor [version]\Templates folder or a subfolder of Templates. A part file automatically becomes a template when it is saved to the Templates folder.

Note: The file standard.ipt in the Templates folder is the default part template. To replace the default template, rename it to save the original file, and then save the new file with the standard.ipt name.
