Tried drafting on an old drafting board from the 80s and my lines came out cleaner than anything I've done in CAD

Picked up a vintage drafting table at a garage sale for 40 bucks, used it on a small project for a client in Austin, and the manual precision actually made me double-check my tolerances before I sent the file to print - has anyone else gone back to paper just to reset their eye for detail?

Used one in architecture school and swore my hand got steadier overnight.

Ever consider using a light table to check your digital lineweights against paper?
