[QUOTE="Fast Learner, post: 334206, member: 649"] I, too, made my own plexiglass boards, which I use in concert with my vinyl mat. I bought somewhat larger pieces of plexiglass from my local Home Despot and instead of drawing lines on them (which I tried initially), I scored lines with an x-acto knife and metal ruler. The lines are even more permanent, and I found them to be less intrusive than the inked ones (the scores are on the "back" side). In addition I found that if I scored a line 3 times in the same place the plexiglass could be beautifully snapped at the score, allowing me to make a variety of sizes. I often draw whole rooms and such in advance with wet-erase markers, or just draw them behind the DM's screen as players reach a room. The reveal is much more effective that having everyone watch me draw them out. :) (Oh, and the wet-erase just rinses off in about 2 seconds, right in the sink, no messy paper towels or anything to deal with.)
