Getting the most out of your Cross Grid Drafting Paper

Cross grid drafting paper combines a standard square grid with a lighter secondary grid overlay, creating a precise reference for technical drawing, PCB layout, architectural sketching, and graphic design work that needs both macro structure and fine-detail alignment.

01 Personalizing your Cross Grid Drafting Paper

Architects and product designers use cross grids to work at two scales simultaneously — the primary grid for overall proportions and the secondary grid for fine details. Adjust the major and minor grid spacing to match your drawing scale. Works especially well for floor plan sketches and component layout diagrams.

02 Perfect for any project

This Cross Grid Drafting Paper is designed to be versatile. While many people use it for precision cross grid for technical drawing, engineering, and architecture, you can also export it in various sizes to fit your specific workflow:
