We used to do the same thing, until we switched facilities. (I think the sketches wound up on the current workbench--4'x32'--or on the paper alone last year.) We do prefer CAD for anything that is higher detail than conceptual drawings, though. Sometimes CAD is replaced by the pencil and paper technical drawing method, though.
