Daria, great job on the modular conversion. I am think about doing the same thing myself. What thickness of card stock did you use? And what did you glue the card stock tiles you printed out to? Was it thick cardboard or wood? Thanks for your help.

Sorry for the late reply, I used Wassau 110lb cardstock, not really thick as I'd have like honestly. I glued the paper to foamcore using a glue stick. In hindsight the foamcore was a total pain to cut straight and I wouldn't recommend it.

Daria thanks for the reply. You would recommend just the 110lb cardstock?

Honestly glued to the foamcore I think I would have been happier using photopaper. But the cardstock worked fine.

Great idea. Anyone know if there's any pdfs floating around of HQ boards? i'd like to print some out.... I've seen some different versions too... I had no idea there were even different versions of the board.

Jeez, only your second post and you're already practicing threadomancy! |_P Eh, it's fine. The archives go like eight years back, so it's not like we remember what was there.

Somewhere on the German site HQ Cooperation, there are some PDFs available for download with useful tile images for a modular board. Check the Downloads section on the English side and you can find this!
