Questions About Midcentury Drafting Table
- What is the best drafting table?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021The best drawing table is one that is versatile, adjustable, and made of high-quality materials. There is a variety of drafting table styles and designs to choose from — it's all a matter of personal preference. Four-post and pedestal drafting tables are considered to be far more durable than fold-away tables. Larger top sizes are available with respect to these tables, but they are often more expensive. On 1stDibs, shop vintage and antique drafting tables.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022Whether or not drafting tables are good for artists is largely a matter of personal opinion. Artists may find it more comfortable to use one for long sessions of illustrating and drawing. In addition, some artists appreciate that the tables keep their work secure. Find a range of drafting tables on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2023A table used for drafting can simply be called a drafting table. Other names for drafting tables are artist's table, drawing table and architect's table. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of drafting tables.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 17, 2023The main difference between a drawing table and a drafting table is adjustability. Typically, drawing table writing surfaces are stationary, while most drafting tables can be tilted and moved up and down. However, some people use the terms drawing and drafting table interchangeably to describe any table with a tilted writing surface. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of drafting tables.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Whether or not drafting tables are adjustable for height depends on their design. Standard tables feature fixed tops. Height adjustability is an extra feature added to some models to improve utility. On 1stDibs, you can find a variety of drafting tables.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022Yes, many architects still use drafting tables. Although much of architectural design involves computer-aided drafting, many professionals still prefer to draw by hand.
