I am considering incorporating a drafting table into a set of built in bookcases that I am getting ready to make. The first design question that popped into my head was an odd one. Is the lip at the bottom of the drafting table, the one that the triangles and such rest on, of any particular dimension? Does it need to be a particular height above the table or a particular thickness?
I have little experience with drafting tables, obviously, but I thought it might be nice to have. I just bought my wife a mat cutting system (from Lee Valley of course) for Christmas and thought it might be a good work surface as well as my using it for drawing plans. My last project really taught me the value of drawings of a project.
