Is it all by hand or do you use a power checkering tool

Do you buy that paper, print it or just draw it?

I got a batch from a checkering class years ago and ran some through a copy machine. Later I drew it up in CAD and specified a line weight that printed well. Laser printer works best.

The only way to get perfectly straight lines, James you have nailed it again.
Your work is on another level, thanks for posting.

I LOVE it when the masters share their very talented insight and info with us! Thanks!

This is a wonderful thread since as I'm about to embark on another checkering job.

I just printed out some layout paper. Thanks Jim@IMReps for the link.
