The A3 Priory is a highly portable and compact drawing board with a many features making it suitable for most types of small scale professional design work and student projects.
Ideal for small format paper it provides a 470mm x 400mm working area which provides plenty of space for A3 paper.
Steel roller bearings ensure smooth action on the continuous cross-wire parallel motion.
The steel, angle adjustable frame is finished in midnight black and allows the board surface to be set in one of 13 different positions . This allows easy positioning to find the most comfortable working angle. The frame also features a magnetic catch to firmly hold it closed for transport or storage.
The A3 also features a precision aluminium straight edge with transparent drawing edge and rebated inking edge. Supplied with a lifetime warranty.
Is the straight edge removable?
Yes. It is easy to remove the straight edge from the wires.
What is the difference between Counter-weight and Cross-wire parallel motions?
Counter-weight parallel motions rely on a weighted mechanism to stop the straight edge sliding to the bottom of the board when the table is at an angle. Cross-wire (or continuous wire) parallel motions rely on friction to grip to board.

Can I use a compass with Papyroboard board cover?
Papyroboard is a hard wearing vinyl material which protects your board surface. Although it is hard wearing, compass points may still find their way through if used regularly. We would recommend a cutting mat to protect the board surface.
