drafting tables

Tilted work desks

Drafting tables are large, adjustable work surfaces designed for technical drawing, architectural plans, and detailed illustration.

The tabletop tilts to various angles, allowing drafters to work without hunching over flat surfaces.

Though largely replaced by computer-aided design software, drafting tables remain useful for artists and hobbyists who prefer working by hand.
