I just wanted to say that I printed out a very large map size at 2440mm x 1118mm ( roughly 8 foot x 4 foot) on a digital printed transparency with a matt laminate and it has turned out fantastic. The quality was amazing. I searched everywhere to see if it could upscale and could not find the answers. Hopefully this will help someone who is thinking of doing the same.
I have built a custom table with magnets sunken into the table to hold the map in place. I wanted to use the table to play other games so the map had to roll up.
I also wanted to use the table for Global War 1936 and the magnets work well

@Private:
My 1941 map has been used maybe 20 times. No obvious wear as yet.
Good to know, thanks!

Alright… I broke down today (payday is a good day to break down) and went to my local Fed Ex Office store and ordered Dedo’s Supreme 1941 (52x28") and Supreme 1942 SE (resized to 57x30") maps printed up on outdoor banner vinyl. They’re costing me roughly $70 and $90 US dollars respectively to have made. Just thought I’d put that info out there to anyone reading this thread thinking about having them made… those are some rough 2016 ballpark figures that you can expect to pay if you’re doing a similar project (of course shopping around may save you some dough, I just went to the quickest/easiest solution, though it may have cost me a tad more). I’ll post pictures after I get them back.
