In measuring the terminal block outline you did not subtract the 4.2 side dimension from the overall 7.6 dimension. Thus offset for the lower horizontal side i only 3.4.
Since the drawing is in millimeter, wouldn’t switching to millimeter units make drawing the footprint easier and more accutate?
(Again, sorry for missing comments, have fixed my notifications I believe)
Yes, it’s almost always better to switch to mm while drawing footprints. I believe it’s on me to not have switched to mm for layout as well, that’s something I need to get better at.
