An architect's scale is divided into 10ths of an inch.
With some imagination, traditional drafters could actually produce a true 3-dimensional drawing.
A drafter can use the 45 degree triangle to draw a 30 degree line.
Every drafter and engineer continues to utilize both the architect and engineer's scales.
The parallel straight edge can be used for aligning the paper as well as drawing horizontal lines.
Both the drafting machine and the parallel straight edge were used on specially designed tables to aid the drafter in producing technical drawings.
Prior to the development of computer aided drafting, drafters relied on drawing boards, paper, and pencils to create technical drawings.
A 15 degree line can be easily created by arranging both the 45 degree and 30/60 degree triangles.
When using a technical pencil to create a drawing the drafter would usually select a soft lead to create a very light line.
A line to be drawn perpendicular to a horizontal line can only be drawn with a 45 degree triangle.
