I don't have any copies now I could display.
But think of a capital M as a stylized rendition of a pair of spread legs, tweaked a bit to make the resemblance explicit.

My dad did a bit of drafting, for the small metal fabrication business he owned. I still write 1/4 in the same style he used for drafting. (No slash; the diagonal of the 4 stands in for the slash.)

I don't believe I ever inherited any of my dad's style, but his draftsman days were long behind him by the time I was old enough to be aware of such things.
