minus-squareBoxOfFeet@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·7 days agoWtf is this shit? No Rotring. No Alvin. No Koh-i-Noor. I guess I have to take the GraphGear, but it’s under duress.
minus-squarerekabis@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up2·6 days agoNo K&E either. Which for any draftsperson, ex or current, is a heretical omission.
