(...) I like the 6x6 cell as well. But 1 wide thick lines or 2 wide? I'm not sure the frame is required either, but the alignment marks certainly are. Calum (18 years ago, 15-Aug-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

Not able to leave well enough alone... here is a centered 5x5 space board, with the alignment parks making a 21x21 square: (URL) and the clean PDF with alignment marks: (URL) This would align the centers of each square with a stud. -Rob A> (18 years ago, 15-Aug-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, FTX)

I like the 6x6 size. I think the frame is unnecessary. I only need to be aligned with the board, my alignment with the other bot is irrelevant. I can use the alignment marks anyway I see fit. Derek (18 years ago, 15-Aug-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) That was my first inclination, to build some sort of registration frame or holes to attach the paper to the robots. That would make sense, but the concern was not to make it too complicated. Calum (18 years ago, 15-Aug-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

OK, stupid suggestion coming up... Why not print a board that is guaranteed to fit in every printer and then fold (or cut) to that outline? Ralph (18 years ago, 14-Aug-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Tape. We talked about simply putting a small bit of tape on 2 sides of the paper, OR if thats a problem then the corners... OR double sided tape underneath and out of the bots way. Whatever is simple, and easy. Chris (18 years ago, 14-Aug-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
