Thread: massive Maps

How big do you want it to be? I did this once for the Kaimais. Used my mapping software skills to create a custom shape/size map at the correct 1:50000 scale and took it to a local printer. Cost me $30 or so, from memory. Such a map for the Ruahines (120km from Manawatu Gorge to Kuripapango) would be 2.4m long.

The Mrs got a world map wallpaper made 2.4mx3m for her office that cost us 4hundy a few years ago. Was only 2 rolls, 1.5m wide. The company could use any picture but once its on the wall that's it.

That sounds awesome, you wouldn’t still happen to have a PDF of that would you?
