I have to draw a kitchen
so whilst it's all straight lines and stuff, I'm finding it quite tricky with the scale and stuff. Maths evades me though.

The scale's probably the toughest bit
To make sure you don't mess up one measurement that then ruins your entire drawing. You could get a scale ruler.

do you find them useful?
I've seen them around, but wasn't sure if it was worth it. I just spent bloody £17 on an adjustable set square and £165 on a drawing board, so at least the ruler is cheap.

I don't use them, but I can do the maths in my head fine generally
I know a lot of folk that found them useful though, especially after using them a few times. Is that an adjustable angle set square? Never got round to getting one of those, or my own drawing board as I was being cheap and couldn't really be bothered. For £6, it probably wouldn't be bad if it helped you do things quicker.

thanks, I'll invest and see how it goes.
I'm not a maths person so I get paranoid and have to double check all my calculations every time so I don't fuck it up.
