Miscellaneous Drafting Notes
This page contains useful notes on drafting, sketching, and drawings.
Every engineering sketch/drawing sheet (of paper) must adhere to the drawing rules. Anything that is not an engineering drawing or sketch may be on blank or lined paper, but not torn from a (spiral bound) book, and must be in permanent ink. Sheets that are not engineering sketches/drawings need not have your name/ID/etc on it.
