Quality drawing frames, delivered promptly, excellent customer service.
I am in awe of how beautiful and well made my new Orchard drafting board is. The customer service was very helpful with my questions and my board arrived packaged superbly, I don’t think shipping damage would have even been possible. I would highly recommend this company and their products to anyone in the market for a drafting board, student or professional. There is absolutely nothing of this quality and elegance available anywhere else and the pricing is incredibly reasonable. I’m so pleased!
