Just for once I agree with PP (don't all faint at once), knowing what you're drawing in the first place is probably the most important thing, far too many site drawings, however they're done, 'miss the point'.
Kevin - having worked with the surveyors/CAD contingent here for long enough, I know how to produce site plans/sections that apart from effectively tracing over don't really need any further work, and makes for happy bunnies in that part of the office, the challenge is persuading other people to modify their drawing style along those lines - actually, getting them to write the drawing number more than 1mm high in something blacker than faint 12H pencil so we can then find said drawing in under an hour in PX has so far proved something of a challenge...
