The most legible handwriting I've ever seen has always been from engineers or mill-wrights, who had to learn and practice a great deal of the block lettering used in mechanical drawing and blueprints.
- mikestew 10y agoMost of what little handwriting skill I have left has obvious traits from the mechanical drawing class I took in junior high school. And in comparison to my peers, I'd say my handwriting is pretty darned good. I mostly can't even write cursive letter forms anymore, let alone use cursive for writing.
- yardie 10y agoI learned block writing in drafting class. In high school. Sadly, with CAD, drafting is a skill that's out of date and with it goes block writing.
