      <div class="title_division">Using the Given Holemaking Template as a Base Template</div>
      <p class="para_division">The easiest way to create a machining feature template is to copy the existing hole_making.prt template located in the directory folder ../mach/resource/template_part/metric or English. These part files already contain feature groups with their appropriate set of operations. The feature groups and operations can be used by copy and paste to create new feature groups or operations.</p>
      <div class="title_division">Creating Your Own Feature Groups</div>
      <p class="para_division">You can create your own feature groups by using the existing Holemaking template as a base template, deleting the contents within it, and adding in your own feature representation and process information. </p>
      <p class="para_division">When creating your own template you need to create the following: </p>
      <ul>
         <li>
            <p class="para_item"> <a class="links" href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="top.openFile('mfgholemaking/ex_creat_feat_grps.html');return(false);">A new feature group for a counterbore hole</a>.
