rOtring Profil Drawing Board | A4 Size Drawing Table | with Adjustable Ruler/Guidelines

precise, well designed and engineered, well worth the money, much better than cheap plastic ones

great drawing board worth paying the extra money

The drawing board overhangs the edge of a table, as pictured, with four angles of 0 (flat), 15, 30 and what seems around 40 degrees as pitch options. The quality is good and at the highest pitch is comfortable for detailed close work when seated. There is a small amount of play in the horizontal rule if you apply any force on it, but that just requires a little delicacy in how you use it. It ships with the Rotring S0213680 Drawing Head (not the vertical rule as pictured) which can be adjusted to any angle (and has defined 'presets' every 15 degrees) from 0 through 90. The drawing head is okay but not brilliant - I'm not sure I'll use it much, but it's nice to have included all the same. In all, it's a nice piece of kit and to me seems worthy of more stars than the previous reviewer suggests.

Pros: Item was quickly dispatched and well packaged, I received this baby 2 days later :D Good material, doesn't look as flimsy as I expected. Great working space. Small enough to put on a small table but big enough to work around with. But this is depend on each person, I suppose (I use this to work on comic, 11x17inches paper) Easy to use. Highly practical. It's a great tool for details and will save lot of time drawing different lines. (It helps me do the border much faster) Cons: Not very portable. The titler doesn't slip, but they can fall off the slot if not careful Overall, despite minor drawback, I think it worth the money. Take good care of it and it will help you along the way a lot too.

I bought this for my son recently, and it hasn't changed much in 33 years! Still excellent and very good quality for it's price (£39.99). Only noteworthy improvement is that the slideable T-square has clips on both ends (this only applies horizontally in landscape orientation). Don't be put off by the current pictures shown on the Amazon website. The portrait (plan) view omits the clip on the end of the T-square, whereas the isometric"ish" view shows it. Mine certainly has clips on both ends. Another mistake is that the picture of the included set-square has a protractor stencil slot shown. Thankfully, it doesn't have that (which in my experience is a waste of time). The supplied set-square is perfect for 90 and 45 degree lines, which is all it should be used for. You need a separate adjustable set-square, a separate protractor, and a compass to use a drawing board effectively for engineering drawings! (BTW - Don't buy the "Rotring Rapid Adjustment Compass" - see my other review!)

I am learning interior design skills and it is very easy to use, precise. I did not think it would be so good, but now that I tried, it is so important to have it when doing my precise plans. Of course later I will need a professional one, but for now this is so fantastic. It comes with the box so you do not need to worry if it will brake or get ruined, it is well protected. You can put inside even your block note to keep together. Very happy about my purchase. Thank you.

Used it exactly 5 times. It doesn’t slide properly anymore and now the mechanism just stopped working. Absolutely not expected from Rotring. Paid double for the name and got a poor quality

Easy to assemble. Table has strong sturdy construction, though the vertical and horizontal rulers are a bit more flimsy as made of plastic. In particular the buttons that lock and unlock them in place feel a little weak and not the finest quality. If you treat them with care I doubt you'll ever have cause for concern though. There are no built in clasps to anchor your paper to the board.

Ich hatte mit dieser Zeichenplatte NUR Probleme. Beginnen wir mit der Lieferung: Die Zeichenplatte wurde nicht etwa in einem original Rotring-Karton geliefert, sondern in einer billigen, durchsichtigen Plastiktüte, mit der ein ordentliches Transportieren von Blättern und Zusatzmaterial praktisch unmöglich war. Daher musste ich mir zunächst noch eine Tragetasche nachbestellen. Die Bedienung der Platte ist einfach nur unzumutbar: Das Lineal wird nur an einer Seite befestigt, zudem auch noch einschienig. Wie man sich bereits vorstellen kann, ruckelt das Lineal beim verschieben extrem, wodurch sich ein genaues Positionieren eher als Kampf herausstellt. Hat man denn nun die richtige Position gefunden und will einen sauberen, geraden Strich zeichnen, so biegt sich das Lineal richtig schön durch und versaut einem die ganze Zeichnung. Das einzig positive, was ich an diese Platte finden konnte, war die Tatsache, dass die Klemmen für die Blätter fest genug sind und sich auch einfach bedienen lassen. Die Blätter verrutschen nicht, weshalb es wenigstens einen Stern gibt. Fazit: Der Anschaffungspreis für diese Platte ist eindeutig viel zu hoch: für gerademal 10€ mehr habe ich eine äußerst zufriedenstellende Platte bei einer anderen Marke erworben. Das Produkt ist in meinen Augen eine einzige Katastrophe, welche noch nicht einmal für Anfänger geeignet ist, da sich nur mit Geduld und viel Zeit eine ordentliche Zeichnung anfertigen lässt.

Meine Tochter kommt damit gut zurecht, es ist alles vorhanden was man zum technischen Zeichen in der Schule benötigt.

trés bon produit bonne construction

Lo podría haber comprado sin maletín, ya que desde que lo monté no he dejado de usarlo. Herramienta básica pero con buenos acabados. Por ponerle una pega, os recomendaría coger siempre el tamaño superior al que vayáis a usar porque de medidas es bastante justo. Por lo demás, como siempre, Rotring no decepciona.

Je m'en sers tous les jours mais je ne fais pas de dessin industriel, je fais des dessins qui se veulent artistique et cet objet est très pratique car les feuille tiennent bien, il est simple de les mettre et de les ôter. Même chose pour la règle qui se bloque et s'enlève d'un geste très simple. Cela me permet de prendre des repères de façon rapide histoire d'avoir les deux yeux à la bonne auteur (portraits).
