After 3 tries, I finally nailed the foundation plan by switching from a 0.5mm lead to a 0.3mm.

The thinner line weight made all the difference for showing the footing details clearly, so has anyone else found a small tool change that fixed a big drafting headache?

Switched to a rolling ruler for long parallel lines after fighting with a regular T-square for years. It just glides and locks in place, so I can bang out a whole sheet of wall layouts without my lines drifting. That one cheap plastic tool saved me so much time and eraser dust.

Ugh, I'm still fighting that T-square.

My old studio had these terrible plastic triangles that would slide around on vellum. I grabbed a cheap cork-backed 30/60/90 from the supply closet and it was like magic, no more smudging my ink lines trying to hold it steady.
