This channel is focused on learning technical drawing skills for engineering design. The items learnt through these videos will be very essential to 1st year students of Bachelor or Diploma in engineering. Students of Industrial Training Institutes (ITI) in India and other countries and of senior high school where engineering drawing is part of the curriculum will also find these videos very useful for their studies. These videos teach the initial steps necessary for engineering (or technical) drawing. If you would like to support this work then simply subscribe to this channel and press 'Like'. Thank You! If you have any question or comment about the videos uploaded in this channel then please leave a message in the discussion and I will get back to you. Also, if you find any mistake in the method of drawing used, then definitely you should not hesitate to comment in the discussion forum. I appreciate your comments. Sujeet K.

a bit confused. 1:5 you said we should multiply but now you are dividing it. or was it supposed to be multiplication when the scale is 5:1 and division when it is 1:5?
If you add up the sides of the hexagon in other words find the perimeter of the hexagon, that is also approximately the circumference of the circle that with the same radius as the length of one of the sides of the hexagon.
Interesting point. The circle radius equal to one of the sides of a hexagon is the circle circumscribing a hexagon. So the perimeter you have mentioned will be slightly less than the circumference of that circle. The circle drawn in this video will have the circumference which is slightly less than the perimeter of the hexagon. Thanks for your comment.
