Plotting Tools - Fred_B - 03-14-2018

What tools do you use when plotting?

Parallel rules?

Rolling Plotter?

Dividers?

Triangles?

Simple ruler?  (like BigBill uses here- https://youtu.be/gucO6eVtwVo?t=13m2s

...or just good guess and an erasure?

Isn't there an easier way to do plots?  There's gotta be!

I use two triangles and a divider. Have no problem.
