Types and Styles of Light Tables and Boxes

Though similar in design to drafting tables, light tables, and smaller, portable light boxes, are used for an entirely different series of tasks. The illumination provided by light tables is most often employed in animation work and to make tracings of drawings. Light tables and light boxes are also ideal for examining slides, transparencies, or photo negatives, or for comparing drawings by laying one over the other. These are the different types of light tables and light boxes we offer at DraftingTables.com.

Smaller light tables perfect for tracing and animation jobs are also available. An angle adjustable Plexiglas work surface sits atop a wooden or enamel frame for a sleek and functional design compact enough for a home office or art room.


Light Boxes
Convenience is a significant benefit provided by light boxes. Inexpensive and portable, light boxes are used by professional, students, and amateur artists alike. A basic light box design features a rectangular work surface, flat or inclined. A carrying handle and/or tilt legs are optional, though in some light box designs, the handle can double as a tilt stand. Color corrected lamps provide the truest view.


For those with varying work needs, a light box with stand is a versatile alternative to the designs of light tables and light boxes. Light boxes with folding stands permit you to set up in a studio or office for either work or presentation of your work.
