A mistakes a mistake , wether its done on a computer or a drawing board . As ' computers dont make mistakes ' We know where to look .
Actually , if the batteries are a bit flat , or suchlike , the arithmetic can get a bit creative with the things .
I doubt theyll ever get the true accuary of a Master draftsman .
Just look at all the ugly cars , bling tiny motorcyles and shirt house architecture available today . The ' Synthetic lost art ' period of design .
The Sixties I tink were the best overlap / interplay of function / form & stylish aesthetics .
The poms of course whine about the Amercian Vehicals , But a Dodge 440 on a pommy lane
makes as much sense as a morris minor on a super highway .Except in current traffic conditions .
Tho there was a Twin turbo Maurice Manure 3.5 Rover V-8 Buick Oldsmobile Pontiac ( B.O.P. ) injuned Ve Hical
that was faster accelerting than the then current Formular one vehicals and gothe British hillclimb Championship .
Tho a Triumph Vitesse beat the porches one year too . None designed on a stoopid computer.
So its the accumen of thre individual . Not neccesarily endless resources , the more complex the more chance for error .
And if you cant throw a ruler and an eye on it , it dont help any. Good for doing rib laser cut things tho, maybe .
A good eye & curves should match it, for a one off in a quarter the time .
198 mph out of number 18 there , and the closest computers nowhere in sight .
Not derideing c a d entirely , but its easy to make the nazi's mistake of assumeing ' advanced tecnology ' is overall superiority .
Its god for stenciling / lettering , and modular / repeat stuff , which is long winded , doing manually .
But as there most of whats been done on this planet , done by traditional methods , they in themselves arnt inferior .
Going back to the 17th century Cathederals , cabinate making and such like , time and labour wernt considered a priority .
there was plenty going without the threat of istantaeneous incineration . Most ' primitave ' societies co - existed in balance
with creation for millenia . Content and some unworried .
Having Fast Food , Travel at Will and a current wardrobe wernt essential .
A picture of a dozen American Indian Chiefs , late eighties , early nineties and a few past the 100 year mark ,
And theyve all still got ALL THEIR TEETH , makes you wonder about the wonders of modern tecnology . And consumerism .
Explained as getting people to think they need things they dont want , and buy them .
