The idea of a draughting pen is that lines of various widths can be draw in ink as well as for radii and circles. I employ a draughting pen to line models with paint and or ink. I was not allowed to learn CAD during my working days as my manager knew full well, I would employ it in my modeling activities. Thus, I continued with pencil paper and an eraser, when I decided to retire my drawings were requested for reference. But I had preempted their request and taken home all such documents, I had drawn and embellished at home for my use. I still work in graphite, ink and paper.
@@DrawingTechnical I believe they are french made, but it most shurely came to Bolivia in the nineteenth century. I also have a golden section gauge from the same builder.
This collection is incredible! Thanks for showing it off!
