So several scores down the length of it using my largest metal ruler (6′) I snapped off the excess. It was pretty clean but I ran the random orbit sander down the edges to ensure there’s no pointy bits that are going to be breaking off. Although given the insetness of the sheet it’s not a major issue but using a finger to pry it up could get nasty.
So now I’ve got a piece of clear plastic to fit in my well on my gaming table and then I realize black grid on black pokercloth isn’t going to work well. So another trip out and I get some gray matte board. I’m going to use some sponge technique’s to ‘roughen’ it up so it looks like stone. Geeky eh?
Then I’m going to use metallic pen markers to draw a grid on the underside of the plastic. So the grid will sit under the part where I’ll be drawing maps.
And the point to this all? I can now put cheet sheets, character sheets and all that under the map, you can read it through the map and yet I can draw over the sheets to map.
