Question

Which of the following drawing tool is not used to set the drawing sheet onto the drawing board?

(a) Drawing clips

(b) Drawing pins

(c) Divider

(d) Adhesive Tape

I had been asked this question during an online interview.

My doubt is from Drawing Tools and their Uses topic in section Drawing Instruments, Sheet Layout & Free-Hand Sketching of Engineering Drawing

Answer 1

Right choice is (c) Divider

The explanation is: Divider is a drawing tool used to replicate the dimensions when the dimensions are repeated. Drawing clips, drawing pins and adhesive tapes are used to attach the drawing sheet onto the drawing board. These attachments are temporary attachments and can be removed after the drawing is completed.
