Creative Catalyst

You may well have noticed that existing iPad stands are designed for smaller iPads but when these stands are used with the bigger, more weighty iPad Pro, they provide flimsy support, a lack adjustment capabilities and, frankly can be annoying to use. The design team at ElevationLab wanted to create something akin to a traditional drafters table – something sturdy, solid and comfortable to use all day – and that’s when they came up with DraftTable.

The cleverly designed DraftTable from ElevationLab is billed as the first adjustable stand which has been specifically made for working on iPad Pro. This superb looking piece of design has wide angle adjustment which enables you to put the iPad Pro in the best possible position depending on the sort of work that you’re carrying out. Though designed to deal with the Pro, the DraftStand works with any size of iPad from the minuscule Mini up to the much larger, 12.9″ Pro.

It’s stability alone is something to be applauded and you’ll be amazed at how steadfast it remains when working on it and regardless of the angle of elevation you’ve got it set at. The high-res, low latency iPad Pro + Pencil, when combined with DraftTable and the app AstroPad, will open up a new world of input for your Mac. DraftTable has the same wide angle range as a Cintiq and this will appeal to creative workers the world over.
