What Students Learn: This drawing board includes a straight-edge rather than a separate T-square, a setup preferred by professionals. The drawing instruments are tools trainees will use on the job. The drafting outfit includes: one set of drawing instruments, one 18" x 24" drawing board/straight-edge combination, one 6" protractor, one 10" 300/600 triangle, one 8" 450 triangle, one 12" architect's scale, one 12" engineer's scale, one 300 mm metric scale, one irregular curve, one lettering guide, one erasing shield, one roll >" drafting tape, two mechanical pencils, two tubes of lead, one lead pointer, one pink eraser, and one pad 25 sheets of 15" x 20" transparent paper.

Special Notes: The Drafting Kit must be used for the study of all texts that teach drafting techniques, in which the trainee is required to prepare drawings or architectural plates. Refer to the special notes of the individual print course when this kit is required.
