In this edition about one hundred pages of new matter with many illustrations have been added, from the desire to embrace all recent improve ments in drawing instruments up-to-date. The whole matter has also been revised, to drop out descriptions of many instruments that have become obsolete, the defects of which were pointed out in early editions, when suggestions were made for improvements which were at the time original, but have now become general, and are adopted by the profession and the trade.

INTRODUCTION — ARRANGEMENT OF INSTRUMENTS IN CASES— DEFINITIONS— METALS USED — QUALITIES AND FINISH. This chapter is devoted to desultory matters relating to drawing instruments generally, and is intended to introduce and unite the subject consistently. The plan of the work to be followed in all future chapters will be to separate each subject by plaoing all the relative instruments, or those intended to produce like results or like forms, separately in consecutive chapters. As a case of drawing instruments generally embraces our first ideas of mathematical instruments, and at the present time in some simple form belongs almost as much to our school requirements as the slate and pencil, it may be well, by way of introduction, to give a slight technical description of instrument cases as they are arranged for professional purposes, particularly as the instruments contained in a case B 2 MATHEMATICAL DRAWING INSTRUMENTS. form a collection of those most useful and important, and therefore should not be lost sight of. The simplest cases contain the most necessary instruments, and the more expensive and complete contain what may be termed the draughtsman's luxuries. If we presume the reader to be acquainted with the names of the ordinary drawing instruments, the cases of instruments, as they are technically named, are the Half-net Case, which contains a pair of compasses which has one movable leg, an ink point, a pencil point, and a lengthening bar, fitted to ic; also one drawing pen. The Set Case, which contains the same as the half-set case, and iu addition, a pair of dividers, ink Full-set Case. bow, and pencil bow. The Full-set Case, which contains, in addition to the instruments in the set case, a set of spring bows, a pricker, and one extra drawing pen. This last case, containing all the instruments constantly required, is sufficiently complete for ordinary professional purposes. The above instrument cases often contain three rules of very little use —a protractor, a sector, and a parallel ARRANGEMENTS, QUALITIES. 3 rule. Cases with a greater number of instruments, containing proportional compasses, road pen, wheel pen, tracer, beam compasses, etc., are termed Long-set Cases, which term is indefinite as to the quantity of instruments. Some variations are occasionally made in full-set and long-set cases, as, for instance, tubular compasses may be put' in the place of the half-set, which will answer in practice for the same purposes, or other changes can be made to the taste of the draughtsman. Persons with limited means will find it better to procure good instruments separately of any respectable maker, as they may be able to afford them, than to purchase a complete set of inferior instruments in a case, With an idea of economy, some will purchase second-hand instruments, which generally leads to disappointment, from the fact that inferior instruments are manufactured upon a large scale, purposely to be sold as second-hand to purchasers, principally from the country, who are frequently both unacquainted with the workmanship of the instruments and of the system practised. Inferior instruments will never wear satisfactorily, whereas those well made improve by use, and attain a peculiar working smoothness. The extra cost of purchasing the case would, in many instances, be equal to the difference between a good and an inferior set of instruments without the case. Further, if the case be dispensed with for economy, the instruments may be carefully preserved by merely rolling them up in a piece of wash leather, leaving space between them that they may not rub each other ; or what is better, by having some loops sewn on the

  • Basic Drawing Equipment Worksheet
    Drawing Equipment Technical drawings, graphic images and sketches can be created using a variety of instruments, ranging from traditional tools such as pencils, compasses, rulers and a variety of triangles as well as by computer. Drawing tools are used to make accurate and legible drawings and models. Whilst the computer can be used for most drawing and modeling requirements today, traditional drawing instruments such as those mentioned above are still important very important, particularly for freehand sketching and experimenting with shapes and lines. When drawing, sketching or attempting basic graphics work the pieces of equipment shown below are very useful and often essential. A protractor is used to measure angles. A typical protractor is a semi- circular piece of plastic with 180 degrees printed around its curve. This piece of equipment is not only used in graphics for constructing accurate drawings but is also used in subjects like Mathematics. Also available for graphics is a full circle protractor which can be used to accurately measure angles greater than 180 degrees. A Mechanical pencil (sometimes known as a clutch pencil or refillable pencil) are used in drawings such as Orthogonal or Isometric drawings as they provide a very constant line thickness. The pencils come in a number of line thicknesses with the more common being 0.35, 0.5, and 0.7. These pencils can be very expensive as are the refills. A compass (or pair of compasses) is a technical drawing instrument that can be used for drawing circles or arcs. As dividers, they can also be used as tools to measure distances, in particular on maps.

  • I Engineering Drawing
    Chapter - I Engineering Drawing Introduction A picture is worth saying a thousand words; hence drawings are used to visually communicate ideas, thoughts, and designs. Drawings drawn by an engineer for engineering purposes is Engineering Drawing. Drawing is the Universal Graphical Language of Engineers, spoken, read and written in its own way. Engineers must have perfect drawing skills and excellent working knowledge of engineering concepts. An inaccurate drawing may misguide the workman and ultimately affect the production. Objectives In this, the first session, you'll be looking at drawing instruments and the typical accessories used in drawing. On completion of the session, you should be able to: •= Identify various types of drawing instruments and their uses. •= Classify drawing sheets and the different grades of drawing pencils. •= Draw the layout and title block on a drawing sheet. •= Use the lettering and dimensioning techniques in common practice. Drawing Instruments The Drawing Board The D2 or D3 drawing boards are usually used in polytechnics and engineering colleges. Drawing boards are made of well-seasoned softwood such as Oak or Pine. The standard sizes of drawing boards as per BIS (1444-1977) are given in the table. The Drawing Sheet The standard sizes of drawing sheets as per BIS (10711-1983) are given in the table. The ratio of the width of a drawing sheet to its length is 1: A2. The drawing sheet should be tough and strong and its fibers should not disintegrate when an eraser is used on its surface. Minidrafter: A minidrafter is a device with two scales set at right angles to each other.
