French term

Tour de fibrage

French to English Other Construction / Civil Engineering Optical fibre facility - EN-UK
I have found rather more examples of this as "drawing tower" than as "draw tower". However, the "draw tower" hits seemed better quality and that is the form I prefer. However, as fibre optics isn't my specialist field, I thought I'd ask whether anyone had any thoughts on my choice between the above two terms.

Sort of a “The Suicide of a Guy Who Once Built an Elaborate Shrine Over a Mouse Hole” :-)

Thanks Donal Thanks for that info. I'll use "draw tower" then, as a drawing tower sounds to me like something a reclusive artist might use.

They're interchangeable. You'll even find reputable sources using both versions apparently indiscriminately.
