Re: Proper Drafting Technique

One of the coaches on 1766 was a draftsmen in the industry for many years. He likes to make sure that the people on the drafting team know how to manually draft even if it isn't always used extensively.

My suggestion: To make each student manually draft a screw in detail. It really helps them respect the art. You can't really master something, if you don't have a healthy respect for it. I'm not really sure where he got the actual drafting tools though....sorry I can't be more help.
