Freehand Sketching

Freehand sketching is used to transfer ideas from an engineer's abstract thoughts to a 2D or 3D representation. It is used for daily communication in engineering as drawing is the international language. Freehand sketches can also quickly present ideas graphically to non-technical people. Sketching improves communication within teams and with customers. Freehand sketches are drawn without instruments, using only a pencil and eraser. They are drawn before actual drawings because they are faster. The document then provides instructions for drawing straight lines, circles, arcs and basic strokes.
