Drove by an old drafting shop in St. Louis that's been closed for years

I was in St. Louis last month for a tree removal job and drove past this old drafting supply shop on Grand Avenue that I used to go to back in the 90s. The front window still had that faded sign for blueprint machines and parallel bars... made me think about how we used to spend hours there picking out leads and mylar sheets. Anyone else miss having a real place to go look at drafting tools instead of just ordering everything online?

Those old blueprint machines in the window brought back memories, I found a drafting table at a garage sale last summer and it still works perfect.

Buddy of mine still drafts everything by hand, loves that old school feel.
