REPORT-

1. Initially Ensure the Provided class is good by applying boundry if issues observed then resolve the same before proceeding ahead
2. Tooling defines the opening and closing of the core and cavity resulting the formation of mold cavity where the molten plastic is injected and allowed to cool
3. To define the tooling axis we initially sppose to check the ease of tooling axis for opening and closing of the core and cavity normal to plane for all 3 planes
4. Consider the hole, Ribs, Slots and other Enginnering to check possible Dummy tooling axis
5. After the decideing the Dummy tooling axis

6. 1	Take intersection for the one plane on Tooling axis
   2	Draw line from intersection to check wether intersecting with tooling axis
   3	After draw a bisecting line between two lines drwn on intersection
   4	Repeated the above steps for the second plane on tooling axis
   5	We get 2 Dummy tooling axis from 2 Planes
   6	Now as this 2 Dummy tooling axis are not collinear we extracted the tooling axis by bisecting two Dummy tooling axis
   7	Obtained Tooling axis is then considererd for Draft Analysis

7. Use Feature draft analysis by providing pulling direction, surface, draft angle and draft angle direction
8. Green results are ok, blue results shown negative draft (for angle use colour scale)
9. Once tooling axis is ok procees the B Surface and C Surface by offseting class A Input
10. at the end we observe that the walls are not attaing draft angle of 3 deg hence we manage the dummy tooling axis to attain the walls at draft angle 3 degree
11. And hence acheive the satisfactory draft analysis reports for the Surface component and Solid Component
