Marker board

    I really like to draw ... but not artistic drawings, but flowcharts and various ideological things for my web projects, when developing site modules or the skeleton of a future site.

    Drawing on paper is too much expense. When the thought rushes, I can “spoil” up to 30 A4 sheets. Grind to economical - you do not have time to write everything down, or you get distracted and lose your thought.
    And therefore, I decided that it would be nice to get a magnetic whiteboard ...

    Magnetic Whiteboard

    But the prices, for such a miracle of technology, unfortunately, were not at all pleased.
    Small from 2000r., But about big even it became scary to think :)

    And since I recently quit and paid for tuition, there was no extra money. In this connection, it was decided to “create” something ...

    The manufacturing process of a harsh analogue:

    Conclusion


    Of the advantages:
    -very economical (kept within 0 rubles. Since all the materials were found at home, and I don’t remember the prices for them now);
    - "board" is easy to manufacture;

    Of the minuses: -
    short-lived ("paper + adhesive tape" and "metal sheet" or "ceramic sheet" are incomparable);
    - the joints between the strips of adhesive tape - visible to the naked eye (but this also has its plus, it turned out, a kind of horizontal horizontal ruler);
    - there is no possibility to use magnets or push pins.

    I think that my “board” is enough for a maximum of a month, because the marker is not completely erased. There remains a small train. But for economy, as a temporary analogue, this is entirely justified. And there you look and the financial situation will be corrected.

    I needed: 1 Whatman (as an analogue, you can use 9-12-16 A4 sheets), 1 marker, 1 scissors, 1 wide adhesive tape, 1 hour of free time.

    Thanks for attention.
