Demonperformer Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Another vote for the tri-atlas, you can choose the scale/faintness that best suits your equipment and can print off the pages you need as you need them, building it up as you go along.

Bizibilder Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 I prefer home printed and laminated charts. You can just print the ones you need. Lamination is good as it keeps 'em dry on dewey nights and you can write on them with a felt tip fen and then wipe it off again.I have a couple of clipboard clips on the wall of the obsy - very useful to put charts etc on.
