- On your Autocad press "CTRL + 2" to show "DESIGN CENTER" click on the modify and create your Fittings
- Arrange your Fittings, Trailers & Cranes "by creating your Palette" press "CTRL + 3" watch my video clip sample (follow link) https://youtu.be/GaT2nK8wYFg, give a like & i'll send you here a video tutorial on Pipe Fittings 
video was for cranes but the same applies to other scope.

Hello John and Phil, if you declare correct units in each file that you want to INSERT and not copy/paste inside each other the inches, feet, mm, m, etc... shouldn't be a problem as AutoCAD will automatically scale them at the right value and when you will 'read' the chacarterictics with a LIST it will be written : scale 1/1 but + units mm,inches,m,feet,etc...

When you are creating a block and are asked for the insertion point of the block you should pick a point on the geometry itself and not use the default 0,0.

I have an isometric piping symbols drawing I could share with you but it is not metric.  You would have to scale it.

It is a small window from a large combined services drawing, I have managed to find enough video's now to learn how to make blocks and insert into the drawings. What I was struggling with this, I made a scale block of a crane and wanted to insert it into a full sized site plot plan but when ever I tried I could not see the block either it didn't work or it was in a strange position on the drawing. I think I figured out where I was going wrong though, when I made the block I didn't start it close to the x/y axis, could this have been the problem? 

I am still hoping to find some ready made blocks for single line, if that's the correct term, Isometric pipe drawings just to save drawing them all myself.

Yes, I am familiar with creating single line isometric piping drawings.  I don't see the drawing you are referring to.  As regards the plot plan, what is your point exactly?  Actually it looks more like a small portion of a plot plan.
