As I said, I am a drafter and have been for almost 35 years. The last 17 years have been on a computer. Prior to that, I spent a lot of years on the board. When you draw everyday, you get fairly decent at it. You can ask anyone that surveys with me. I can pretty much draw things to scale without use of a protractor or scale. My sketches can be overlayed on line plots and match almost exactly.
