As I said the cheepest way to protect your
maps is to Get some Poster board. The plastic
type you can find at stationary stores is really
good. Then get some Acid Free Craft Bond Multi-Purpose
Spray glue. Made by Elmers glue co is the best
and make sure it says ACID FREE on the can!
Then DON'T spray the glue on the Maps!!! Spray
the Glue on the Poster board only and let it Dry
for a few minutes. Its a good Idea to lay the Map
on the Poster board first and mark the Board.
Then mask the edges that will be showing with
house painters tape. Then spray about a 2 inch strip
all the way around the inside of the tape and then an "X"
from corner to corner and remove the tape and let glue dry.
Take your time and lay the map on the Poster board
and line up the edges. Get a friend to help then
carefully start at the top and work from the top
center down and out to the edges. Smooth the map
onto the poster board always from the center out an down.
then set it flat some where to dry for a day and your map
will last for years.
DON'T USE water Based White glue you'll ruin your maps they
will crinkle up and look like crap.
I hope this helps some of you that are in to crafts and
want to make some kick ass gaming maps!!
