10 years laters and I have similar things. That metal ruler is so useful

@wrongIQ 5 жыл бұрын

I'm from Russia and as a graphic designer I used similar set of tools back in the days when computers were not in the game. It's also interesting to notice that here we didn't use some of the tools that you've shown e.g. that bag with eraser particles. BTW I almost laughed when you've shown your 2 metal rulers - Yes! Exactly the same!

Yes, I agree, I didn't see his t-square though. But I didn't watch the whole thing

I'm glad I found this. I was trying to explain to a younger architect the tools that I used in commercial art in the early 70's, for the life of me I couldn't remember the name of the compass I used for my typography. I'm going to send this to him. My toolbox wasn't quite this elaborate but everything I had in my toolbox was in yours. Thanks

This brings back memories of my childhood when I used to snoop around my day's drafting table and most of what you have he had. That started my love of architecture.

At my university we teach traditional drafting over the course of the first year and continue the practice through all 5 years of the degree program. I actually have most if not all of those tools on hand right now. Nice video. (:

This is a good thing. We refuse to hire interns or even graduates with no experience because they do not know how to draw. They have spent 5 years clicking buttons and gazing at a LED display. Very little of their skills learnt in college have any practical use in an architecture firm. All architecture students should spend their first year drafting with a T-square and wooden pencils you have to point via a sanding pad. It makes you think about the line you are drawing. They should ink with a ruling pen with only a knife to fix errors. Again. it makes you think about the line, about the order of the drawings. The sad state is, drafting instruments of any quality are no longer made.

@MrMaybeimdreaming100 I would recommend architecture as a major for anyone interested in design. You can do just about anything with an education in architecture. The same cannot be said for other design degrees.

If i may but in, based on my experience, the education is very well rounded and rewarding. Its a perfect mix of arts, maths, sciences, and history courses. in school, you spend half the time listening to lectures and half the time in the studio which, in my opinion is way better than listening to lectures the WHOLE day. That being said, architecture as a course also takes up ALOT of your time and no matter how well you budget your time you will most definitely end up pulling all nighters.

I'll answer your questions since no one else has yet :). I have just finished my second year of University, studying to be an architect. To answer your first question, it is difficult in the sense that there is a lot of work, sleepless nights, and coffee will be your best friend. Secondly yes you need math and physics in high school; I suggest checking admission requirements to schools that interest you. But if you love what you do, it's all worth it!

@Que14kt 7 жыл бұрын

I've always appreciated your videos...this one is pretty cool too. While many architects old and young now use computers--there are those of us who tend to sketch in meetings or with clients where using a computer or tablet just doesn't make sense. Like always...I have picked up a few pointers and sincerely appreciate the video series. Have a blessed day.//Chuck

Your videos are very helpful. I'm new to the field of Technical Drawing. I just started Drafting - Construction Drawing in a school in NY. One question, at about 3:20 you show what you have underneath the vinyl desk cover. Doesn't the vinyl conflict with the precise lines that need to be drawn onto the Velum paper? I'm not sure, I just thought I'd ask. Also, can you please teach us how to set up a Parallel Straightedge? The cables are are challenge to set up. Great Videos. Thanks
