How do you hold a compass in drafting?

It is a lot easier when the compass is adjusted correctly; If you are using a compass with a pencil lead, then adjust the tips of the compass to be at equal lengths. Set the compass for the desired radius, "set" the point where the center will be slightly leaning away from the surface to be marked, Hold the compass on the very top, bring the point to the surface and lean the compass in the direction of the arc to be drawn, twist slightly with even pressure to mark the surface. Note: If you are using an ink compass everything is the same yet ink is very unforgiving, so go slow. Note 2: If you are using a "Chisel Point" lead, use fine sandpaper to sharpen the point to a flat edge, this style gives you a more even darker line then a standard #2 pencil lead.
