[QUOTE="TheAuldGrump, post: 3037129, member: 6957"] Wow, add another fifteen minutes, twenty at the outside, to the total... color me impressed... :p Tonight I printed twelve pages, time spent printing - less than five minutes - and I can do something else so I don't really count this, I cut the pages with a straight edge and hobby knife, another five (less if I use the rotary cutter - but the knife was handy), I sprayed the cardstock with glue (taking maybe a minute to do all twelve) , I glued them to foamcore ($1 a sheet, about 2' x 3') about another three minutes (more if I were trying to line things up neatly), cut foamcore using knife and straight edge another five.... Each foamcore tile is 7 inches by 14 inches. Now, mind you, I intend to spend a good deal more time, since these are actually the bases for some three dimensional terrain - this [i]will[/i] take up a significant amount of time, but that is because I like building terrain... but laying out the base tiles is not a significant amount undertaking, compared with going to the store, getting the tiles, and running back home again. If I were just printing tiles then I may or may not bother gluing to foamcore, since I can also print to cardstock - while the resulting boards would be less sturdy they are also cheap enough that if they wear out I can replace them. Plus I have greater variety, even sticking to stuff found free online. (Warhammer Quest in particular still has a lot of stuff available for free downloads.) I think Felon overestimates the value of his time... The Auld Grump, who took almost as much time explaining the process as it takes to [i]do[/i] the process.... [/QUOTE]
