  I draw graphs quite often to try and communicate how our laser machines work. It’s a really useful way to describe the relationship between two properties.
  I also sometimes need to make technical drawings of parts for an engineer to manufacture.

  It’s all done by a computer programme, I never draw graphs by hand. But it’s useful to make your graphs look nice, as this is where most scientists look first and what they remember from anything you write.
