ABSTRACT:
A mini-drafting machine that is structured so that it can be guided horizontally and vertically along a flat surface, such as a piece of paper. Horizontal, vertical and diagonal lines, as well as different sized arcs and circles, can be drawn upon the flat surface. Different sized geometric shapes can also be made upon the flat surface with built-in templates. The lengths of the vertical, horizontal and diagonal lines can be measured, while the angle of the diagonal lines can be determined.
