Look at these things!

Do you have any idea what they are? Shit no you don't! Who do you think you are? A Draftsman?

Thats a draftsman! Look at those sideburns! Draftsman have huge fucking sideburn, and kick ass drafting tables like this one.


Look at that shit! Your table ain't got shit on this one! Look at all those triangles on the side of it. Wheres your triangles? Thats what I thought.

Do you know what an elevation is? A section? A plan? Huh? Shit no, you dont! You arnt a draftsman,
But I am.

I was recently hired as an architectural draftsman for a masterplanning firm in AltaDena, California.
Where do you all work?

Mr. Henry Bemis

Darkblade_1

Oh damn, really. I noticed those and I thought to myself, ya know I bet someone puts alot of work into chosing the colors of those little borders..

Agent Vesago

Mr. Henry Bemis

Jordyn

Jordyn

potatoe

this is the worst time to realize that i don't have the pic involving various drawing instruments taped to jordyn

Darkblade_1

Ya?
Ya?!

Well what about THIS miss.. knows drafting tools..

Jordyn

That's one of those rulers that you slice chunks off of to make ninja throwing stars.

Lemming

I work construction over the summer

But I spent all my money on a computer and a motorcycle

I need to get a job

Darkblade_1

Ha!

its not a ruler at all!

its an architectural SCALE

Rankenphile

I fucking love drafting.

Bisecting curves and drawing tangents by hand is so damn awesome.

Isometric circles without a template go go go

that's a circle template, for lazybones losers who can't use a compass.

Darkblade_1

All the perfect circles I've ever drawn templateless are exactly the radius of my forearm..

you must have an exceedingly flexible elbow.

Darkblade_1

Well of course, Draftsmen live in constant fear of ninja assault, don't believe me? They even showed it in Naruto..

Grath

if I told you exactly what I do I'd get the biggest blankest stares ever.

So I'll put it this way, I maintain the cogs in the wizard machine that makes hospitals work and kill less of you by accident.

Jordyn

my elaborate trick to get you to say you watch Naruto has succeeded.

Someone bring me a pie

OF VICTORY.

Darkblade_1

The 360 game was very good.
Also.

i am a mere grunt but are you talking about the frame because that sounds more like the frame

Rankenphile

I believe he is talking about the matting, not the frame.

But the bit of card between the picture and the frame comes in different colours, doesn't it? If you're in a really fancy hotel, it might be mocha. I'm just dreaming here. I don't know. I don't know.
