2.1 INTRODUCTION
°
The two most important things in drafting are:
Precision
Speed
You always want to fi nish your drawing as fast as possible, yet you do not
want to undermine your drawing's precision.
It is best to learn precision before speed because it is easier to learn to speed
up the creation process than it is to improve accuracy.
In this chapter we will tackle many commands, but learning to draft with
precision is most important.
