Question 1

What is isometric dot grid paper used for?

Accepted Answer

Isometric dot paper places dots in a 60° triangular pattern, making every dot equidistant from its three neighbors. This layout enables accurate 3D sketching — cubes, prisms, architectural structures — without the visual clutter of full grid lines. It's used by engineers, architects, game designers, and STEM students.

Question 2

How is isometric dot paper different from regular dot grid paper?

Accepted Answer

Regular dot grid paper uses a 90° square arrangement — useful for note-taking and bullet journaling. Isometric dot paper uses a 60° triangular arrangement designed for 3D drawing. The two papers serve very different purposes and are not interchangeable.

Question 3

What dot spacing should I choose?

Accepted Answer

10mm (1cm) is best for large drawings and beginners — dots are easy to see and connect. 8mm is a versatile choice for most 3D sketching. Use 5mm for fine technical work where you need many details on a single page.
