The drafting desk in the picture is a wall mounted model. These can come in handy in the warehouse where they make a great shipping/receiving counter for signing bills of lading and other delivery slips. The desk can be mounted close to the shipping door where its needed. In the home it would serve a great need as a writing surface close to a wall phone or as a fold away desk where space is at a premium.

It could certainly be used by artists and illustrators who need a place to hold their sketch pad comfortably as they sketch.

The drafting board shown in this picture would suit a hobbyist who needs the extra organizers and trays the desk provides for materials for their hobby. As a drafting table you would need to add a vinyl board cover so you could draw properly on different kinds of media and have a surface to allow the use of compasses and dividers. As a hobby table the adjustable angled table would really help position your work at a comfortable position. The casters on this board are extremely practical. Drafting boards are usually big and heavy items that take up a lot of space. Having one on wheels makes it easy to roll it out of the way when its not being used. This is especially important in a residential home where there might not be space to keep the board set up all the time.
