Sorry if this isn't the right place for this question, but we were wondering if there is a way to automatically create "marking lines" (sorry if there's a better term!), to plates in a part/assembly. An example of this would be you have a base plate and another plate has to be welded to it at 90° somewhere on that base plate, we would like a marking line put on the base plate so when we send the files off to a router place they can cut the pieces and mark those lines so we can line up the plates on them.
Is there a way to do that in Solidworks or is there an add-in that will do that?
Thanks in advance for any help!

In the assembly, you can add extrude cut which you can opt thru or not thru part
So the line is shown on the assembly but not on the part then you can use if as a ref
