How much weight capacity should a drafting stool have?

A commercial drafting stool should carry a minimum 250-lb rating for standard use; big-and-tall models are rated at 350–500 lbs. BIFMA-certified stools are tested well beyond their rated capacity under dynamic load cycles. Always check the spec sheet — residential-grade stools from retail stores are often rated for only 225 lbs.
