I couldn’t find any magnets that thin. I just redid mine yesterday and had to use thicker ones. Good job Sired.

I don’t know if they have Home Depot in Canada, but that’s where I got it, if not, you can find it here :

http://www.homedepot.com/p/MASTER-MAGNETICS-3-4-in-x-26-ft-Magnetic-Tape-with-Dispenser-96774/204752648?cm_mmc=Shopping%7cTHD%7cG%7c0%7cG-BASE-PLA-D25H-Hardware%7c&gclid=CN-u3In81tECFUi2wAodQuQIAA&gclsrc=aw.ds

It has bad reviews lol, but it works good, just don’t stick to anything. However the drop of super glue seems to work, as they have never fell off.

Thanks for the comment cyanight, all your magnetic mods are pretty amazing!

We do have Home Depot (all over the place here), but they don’t seem to carry Magnetic Tape.,… well, they do, but it’s this stuff : https://www.homedepot.ca/en/home/p.12-x-10-magnetic-tape.1000418120.html?autoSuggest=pip which wouldn’t work as it’s a LOT thicker.

I HAVE however seen that stuff at Micheals Arts and Crafts. You’re right, it doesn’t stick well (or at all) so superglue is a must.

Thanks for the feedback guys, I hope by this weekend ill have some pics of the progress. Ill set up a few different border styles, all of which will be towards natural. I actually like the sea zones, so ill just keep that look… since ive also already recreated that look/layer anyway haha.

YGH…

It will add the enthusiasm for sure to do more videos!

It’s over here…

Regarding prices, here are some quotes that I got from two different Southern California print shops  (I had posted this also on the thread entitled Ambilzi & Grasshopper’s 1940 Global Map)

The first print shop provided the following estimates (note the $52 set up fee):

SET UP:  $52.05 ( digital color file set up, latex printer set up)

48" x 105" vinyl $142.63  print digital color 4/0 on white smooth vinyl (15oz)

48" x 105" canvas  $300.13  print digital color 4/0 on canvas

48" x 105" versa fabric  $273.88  print digital color 4/0 on versa fabric

53" x 116" vinyl  $174.63 print digital color 4/0 on white smooth vinyl (15oz)

53" x 116" canvas $368.13  print digital color 4/0 on canvas

53" x 116" versa fabric $335.88 please note: print cannot be any larger, printing on a 54" rolld

A second set of quotes from a different Southern California printing company for printing on vinyl (the type of material used for advertising banners):

48"x105" ,  white 64" Roland EcoSol Banner, solvent 6 color Roland 4sf  $230.80

53"x116",    white 64" Roland EcoSol Banner, solvent 6 color Roland 4sf  $258.78

56"x122.5",  white 64" Roland EcoSol Banner, solvent 6 color Roland 4sf  $277.42

(I might check on the AliBaba website to see what I can find for printing services in China.  Also, I’m checking on the possibility of printing on upholstery vinyl and marine vinyl).

Nice tables guys, something for me to do in the future

@elrojo33:

That would be my answer. Anyway, I’ll keep an eye out. If I come across some I will let you know.
Happy hunting.

Thanks much.
