Setting Drawing Paper on the Board

Step 1:

The drawing board is conveniently placed on the table with the paper on the board, leaving equal size all rounds, with the Tee-square edge to the left hand side.

Step 2:

Place the tee-square on the paper and gently move or slide the tee-square to the top edge of the paper. Set the top edge of the paper parallel to the edge of the tee-square with the stock of the tee-square firmly against the edge of the drawing board on the left-hand side.

Step 3:

Hold the paper with four pieces of adhesive tape or two metal clips to hold the paper in position at four corners.

Step 4:

Gently slide the tee-square down without moving the paper.
