Wayne,
Thanks for sharing the memories.
I had been drawing things since a child, won a contest with a local
radio show for my crayon drawings at age five. By the time I was in
college I was already good at that. I got 1/2 point off one of my
drawings in drafting class, otherwise got 100% (found out latter, I
was top in drafting for my engineering class).
But I went into Electrical Engineering as a profession (where drawing
skills helped with diagrams).
Many years later I married the chief drafts-person for ORECK
Engineering. She was doing 3-D models on a computer which provided
files for their modeling machine to create scale models of
prospective products from plastic. She had been an artist in HS and
chose drafting as her profession (instead of starving artist). She
handled the entire blueprint library, keeping eng. change records for
the company. Great organizational skills. Those of you who
subscribe to Dubus Magazine in NA know her for managing subscriptions
(Janet Cole).
