Many, so to speak, draftsmen, in their work faced such problems as fatigue and pain in the lower back (in the hand) or fatigue and a drop in vision. All this inconvenience caused due to the long and painful work process. Whatever drawing tool you choose, is the main important reason.
The importance of the quality of the working board for any student or professional architect, you see, is of paramount importance, since it is their most valuable tool.
Despite the prevalence of computer technology, many graphic designers, artists, architects, and regular students still prefer whatman and pencil. Graphics are applied on a traditional board. Works created on a drawing board cannot be easily reproduced or copied. Based on electronic documents, this is possible. Therefore, the drawing board gives the original material, with some degree of copyright protection.
When it comes to choosing a board, consider the space available to you. Although floorboards are the best choice, you should have a work area where the drawing board fits in freely. Well, if you are still unlucky with space (not enough space), then it is better to choose portable ones. To some extent, the height and angle of rotation of the board will be determined by the size of the working area.
What size of drawing material do you expect? Formats A1, A2, A3?
Is it really necessary to move the drawing board from place to place?
Students who can use their drawing boards at home as well as in the classroom will need a less bulky portable drawing board. In such cases, a robust design is recommended, including a cover for easy transportation from home to the school.
It is also important to consider the degree of ability of the board to rotate. Although some people like to work sitting or standing, the plane of the board should be comfortable for you. Therefore, it is worth considering whether it is possible to control the slope of the board to 45 degrees.
The style and working conditions you choose yourself. This is a very personal choice, and the choice for a range of drawing boards is huge today.
The price of the shuttles varies depending on the thickness of the board and the brand of the manufacturer.
