Located in my basement, just a short distance from my machine shop. It's generous size 12' by 30' and comfortable setting. Here's a picture of my Hamilton Drafting table.. That still receives lots of action today for drawing part prints, buildings, or laying out machinery. The drafting machine in on the left with an aluminum and clear blades. On the far top RH side is my trusty 1955 Machinist's Handbook,, Bible we'd call it. Left are circle and elliptical templates. Circle and beam Compasses for large circles. Triangles 30-60-90 degree along with a French Curve. Square root, Trig tables, and die maker's Radius Charts. Of course a slide rule and scales. Mechanical pencils in three different lead hardness. Horse hair drawing brush, spare leads, and sharpener.. Electric eraser & shield.. All that's needed. And old the school calculator..The slide ruler...
I started using a "T" Square and triangles 65 years ago. After a few years I purchased a K&E arm machine. Then graduated to a K&E track machine. We called the paper Velumm that you'd make blue prints from.
Sitting across from the drafting table is table desk used for spreading out drawings, etc. Along with my printer scanner and other catch alls.... Along with a two drawer file cabinet. Gram scale and lighted magnifier on top...
This is my double pedestal desk that has my computer monitor, mouse, and keyboard. My work station...
This is a roomy lounge area where I entertain friends using the round table and chairs..
Like the rest of my shop. A fire extinguisher by the door...
