Drafting Pencils and Pens

I was fortunate to take two semesters of drafting in High School and even more fortunate that one of my first jobs was drawing machinery parts for a factory.
I did not continue this kind of work, but have enjoyed drawing ever since.

That's all very organised! I remember at school having 'Technical Drawing' and I found that one of the most difficult subjects :-o

I remember those brands. I also had my first job as an engineer spend time on the drafting board.

An interesting capture - something entirely different and the information adds impact!

Ah, I too spent a few years at the drafting table - a skill lost to CAD programs - but memories of grabbing a Staedtler. Cheers for the great shot to awaken those Walter.
