| | I'm hoping to use repositionable glue dots. I was going to use the 3M poster ones but I think the glue dots might be easier. |

I DON'T THINK I CAN FIND A PIECE OF CARDBOARD BIG ENOUGH TO DO THIS PROJECT ON A BACKING. THANKS FOR EVERYONES INPUT. PAM, BLESSED & FREE Th $tree has foamcore boards and the directions say you need a 9x6 piece of cardboard...so for transportation sake I'm using the foamcore..I have 9 pieces that I will attach the periodic table to and then going to attack foam to the wall...they are really light weight so thinking that the stuff that teachers use to put things on the wall...its some sticky, gummy stuff...would work OR use the Comand/3M(??) strip stuff that doesn't harm the walls...they have them for posters...just a thought

| I was thinking about glueing it to styrofoam pieces but they would be just a tad small. A standard piece is 8x4 and this needs 9x6. On Mike's site he has tips for working with styrofoam and says it can be glued with gorilla glue with toothpicks between for durability. I might try that. We are also hoping to get some refrigerator boxes. I think if those were opened up they might be big enough.

| | If you have a Lowe's in your neighborhood, you can pick up sheets of cardboard that are large. Some are 9' x 6', some can be put together to make it 9' x 6'. |

| Who do you ask in Lowes for the HUGE cardboard??? Last time I went and asked them for some carpet tubes I got a HUGE run around...so I went to Home Depot and got 12ft long carpet tubes and the REALLY nice guy even cut them down for me. But I would like some big cardboard....its always handy to have....Can you help???

| I walked back to the receiving area in the back of the store and asked them for the cardboard. I've been to two different Lowes in our area (40 miles away) and they have been gracious and even asked me if they could take it to the van for me. I walk with a cane and it's hard to carry cardboard with one hand 
Hope this is helpful for you. |
