"visual learner"

One of my bosses is a "visual learner" This means that anytime something new comes into our office I have to create a 'to scale' version of this object. I have done this many times before for items including tv's, end tables, wall signs, etc. Today I made 3 tube lamp models. A measuring tape was not enough to demonstrate the differences between 30", 48" and 60". The amount of paper I waste is disturbing.
