Drawing method — illustration.
Keep one reference as you draw the next
- On paper, draw the baseline specified in your pattern and mark where the cross-line belongs.
- Align one arm of an L-square with the baseline. Keep the corner registered while you align the other arm through your mark.
- Hold the tool steady and draw the cross-line in pencil. Recheck the baseline alignment before measuring along the new axis.
Using a T-square instead? Register its head against a straight board edge. Use a straight, undamaged board edge.
