Drew a floor plan by hand for the first time in 8 years and it hurt my hand
Last night our plotter jammed on a deadline (of course), so I grabbed a drafting board and pencil to rough out a 1200 sq ft remodel. My hand cramped up after 30 minutes and my lines were way shakier than I remember from trade school. I learned that muscle memory for manual drafting fades fast when you lean on AutoCAD every day. Anyone else notice their hand drafting skills slipping after years behind a keyboard?

Totally felt that, my hand gave out after one lousy section.

Did you cram or actually practice with a timer?
