As a machinist, the ability to clearly read blueprints and/or schematics is incredibly important. The interviewer is testing your knowledge so the clearest way to express your level of expertise could be to rate your knowledge from 1-10. Briefly explain to the interviewer that you are familiar with blueprint reading and be sure to mention the amount of years' experience you may have with this.
