Drafting Table Supplies
Seven Types of Drafting Table Supplies

One: Drafting Lamp
Anyone working on a drawing or painting must have bright light, and a drafting lamp will clamp securely to a table. Most individuals want to use a drafting lamp that has a swinging arm so that they can beam the light directly at the paper or canvas.
Two: Measuring Tools
Architects and Drafters must use precise measurements, and this leads to needing several types of measuring tools such as rulers, protractors, and calipers.
Three: Cutting Mats
To protect a drafting table, artists need protective cutting mats that have measurements printed on the surface. Cutting mats are available in a variety of colors, and many students or professionals want to buy one that is self-healing.
Four: Scissors, Cutting Wheels and Knives
To cut vellum, cardboard or paper, Drafters and artists need hobby knives, sharp scissors and cutting wheels. These items are available in different sizes and price points.
Five: Drawing Instruments
To make drawing easier, artists and architects want drawing instruments such as pantographs that will clamp to the drafting table or a flexible drafting curve tool. It is a good idea to buy a kit that contains a compass and dividers before drawing blueprints.
Six: Specialty Tools
The additional tools required for a drafting table are a parallel bar to create straight edges while drawing along with a T-square to make vertical, horizontal and angled lines.
Seven: Drafting Templates
With drafting templates, an architect can create unique designs with stencils. There are several types of drafting templates that are made for creating figures, symbols, and shapes. Templates are available in a circle and rectangular.
