Working Drawing
Working drawing should have:

- The material specifications that are required (type and the size of metal, wood,
plastics, ceramics, papers, fabrics) - The fabrication technique to be used (joints, weld, adhesives)
- The hardware that is required (hinges, locks, electrical parts etc.)
- The finishing method
Products which are complex, and the complexity will
determine just how much information can be presented on one drawing.
