Jinsihou Portable A3 Drawing Board Tools Set Inch Scale Drafting Graphic Architectural Sketch Table with Parallel Motion, Set Square, Clamps, Protractor, Anti-Slip Support Standers, Sliding Ruler

Poorly put together, the sliding ruler slide inside the track, when you need to lock it down forget it, really cheap and flimsy. It has a built-in paper holder, another joke, they put a one-sided rubber tape under the flaps to hold the paper in place, the rubber sticks to the flap, once you get the rubber stuck back down and paper inserted, it doesn't hold the paper in place. Think twice before buying.

No instructions, but simple design. I am a contractor for 48 years but not an architect. Had 3 years of drafting in High School and at the University. I have had a drafting table for years but finally sold it for computer software. Just something about using a pencil and paper makes it fun instead of work. My eyes aren't the best at 69 years old so this is relaxing and creative for me, whereas the computer was intensive and stressful.

The entire setup is pretty flimsy, and is not easy to use for accurate drawings. You spend more time trying to keep things aligned, than you do, actually drawing.

I do a few design drawings every month and have never really got the hang of cad. This board and a few sets of shape templates has me producing great drawings.

Sadly this isn’t a good drawing board. The legs are not stable they don’t click in so they move around and the table detaches. The clip for the paper doesn’t actually fit A3 pages properly so you still need to use tape. The main bar isn’t level. So it’s pretty useless.I believe this is low price for a reason. I do not recommend this item.
