I am old fashioned, took mechanical drawing in school (50 some odd years ago) and am fairly good at it, have a 3X4 drawing table and a Universal Drafting Machine of about first world war vintage, and all the other accoutrements. I find a hand drawing much easier to read than computer generated drawings, especially when a bit of line work is done; I generally do full size drawings on D size paper, or scale up or down for clarity as needed. I know there are advantages to computer drawings, especially, the ability to peel off details to improve clarity, and especially the fact that my hand lettering is not to a very high standard.
