Believe it or not, you are going to have a hell of a time trying to find one. They are pretty much obsolete at this point.

I know. I keep finding crap tastic home made ones and those ugly white ones.

I'm tempted to find an old wood 20's style one. You can get em in lots of places now because hipsters use em for tables... then cut a hole in it and built my own light box.

Does it need to tilt?

I think you are going to have to add a light box to table.

FREE! Heavy Duty Drafting Table

DRAFTING TABLE/ DESK

__________________________________________________ ______
This place has tons of "tech benches" that could easily have a lightbox put in them. If you remember the desk from my house they are super solid. I am sure you could rig one up to tilt with help of some builtbyjamison fabrication work.

There is a used office supply furniture place off of Heinz in Berkeley that has stuff like that. I know it's far but maybe worth a call. I drive by it often if you need a phone number.

Check university art, they might have them. That's where I used to have to go get my drafting supplies. They closed (or moved) the one in Santa Clara I think though.

Not sure here, i-Club and we're talking a backlit (lightbox) drafting table.




So in true i-Club fashion, mod that ish! Drop/Stance it and call it a coffee table!

Seriously though, fml, can't find one even through who we bought them thru at a recent contract-job. IIRC the place was out of Quebec if that helps at all.

**Ditto on the hipster's all got one bit, you mean something like this? I know someone who can make one, but it'll be pricey.
