Ideal card for modular floor tiles.

I may of found the perfect source for home brewed dungeon, floor room tiles. Remove the wedge, print and stick on these.

Promotional stand up signs. Turns out they wedges are perfect for Scalextric banked curves too (that one's for a different forum).

I'm always looking at waste wondering what it could be used for and we had a huge pile of these. It's quite a strange trait but there you have it. They're nice and thick, a decent size for a special room. Source them from your local pub, we get loads all the time.

Nice find.
For markers and overlays, I used the kind of plasticard that architects use and sprayglued printed photocarton on top with Tesa sprayglue, cutting everything out after, with scissors.
For the basic room and hallway tiles, that's a different animal altogether in my case.

I have a hate for spray glue. It never quite worked for me. Might be because I had cheap stuff. Always end up making a mess. In the past I'd glue to cereal boxes and scalpel.

That's why I specifically mentioned Tesa. No other brand will hold up for these purposes and materials, I read.
If you make a mistake, you can rub this stuff off for hours and days after.
