Questions & Answers

What is the best place to buy extra rubber bands for clip boards?

It wasn't necessary for me to wear the band, so I removed it completely. Depending on what you mean, I can think of two possible 1) Go to an office supply store and you will find the needed supplies Make your own giant rubber band using elastic from the fabric store 2) Buy a giant rubber band and insert it in the fabric How to get the length of the event It's your choice how wide you want it to be.

Do you know whether the board is waterproof? It would be great to stretch watercolor paper with this, but I don't want to ruin it by stretching ?

My assumption would be that it is not. Made from porous material, it is designed to allow for healthy air circulation. In the event that it got wet, it probably would swell and warp

What is the distance between the handle hole and the top of the handle? Could you still use 11" x 14" sketch paper on this size board?

Originally I planned to use this with 18" x 24" paper. However, it seems like I need the 23" x 26" size. There is a hole in the 23" side that comes 2" from the bottom of the plate. A portion of the paper is left unsupported by the board when it is pressed into it for 5 . There is a significant design flaw here, in my opinion. As far as I can tell, the 13" x 17" has the opening on the longer side. If this is the case, even if it extends by 2", that's still fine. You should be able to use it with 11" x 14" paper if it is 5 inches thick

What is the grip of the rubberband? Is it very firm or is it a little stretch out if I try to hold a sketch book and it is large. ?

Holds in place, yes

The pencil is great if you're sketching, but not great if you're doing watercolors
4/5

This device works fine when sketching in the field. I purchased it specifically for that purpose. The rubber band is nice and sturdy, the clips are good, and the surface is flat and smooth. It was only when I were painting watercolor washes on top of my ink sketches that I encountered a problem. In order to accomplish this, I taped down the edges of my paper first. In the morning, I washed the area a couple of times, and subsequently In the process, it ripped a little of the board's surface away. some spots on the board aren't as smooth and flat as they should be. This was normal artist's masking tape that I used. I have nothing crazy to say. I guess I'll deal with it. Despite its high price, this is still a decent product.

There is just one crazy thing about that
3/5

this board because it is useful and does what it says it will do. It has only been used for drawing and I haven't used it with My storage slot is constantly covered with powdery mold whenever I take it out of the slot. Even though the climate is humid, nothing gets mold as quickly as this board. I have tried several things to control mold, but apart from getting rid of visible growth, I wasn't able to control it. Whenever I am storing it, I always let it hang out in the open (I know the requirements of humidity) to dry. My assumption is that this mold is in the product, since nothing else in the house gets the mold.

It is very light weight, yet very sturdy
5/5

I'm a big fan! The board is lightweight and it has a small handle that I really like. The size is convenient for most people. A storage facility that is easy to use. It would be nice if the rubber band at the bottom were more flexible. A situation like that cannot last for My paper can be taped to the backside, and I can use the clip part as a little lift to make the board more angled. I'm pleased with my purchase. These would have been useful to me if I had found them sooner.

Art projects can be done with this
4/5

The board has a smooth surface and can be The clip is light in weight and of good quality. I only have one problem. I use artist tape to hold down the picture I'm working on, but it leaves a fuzzy spot on the board when I remove it from the board. The piece of art is not damaged by the tape, yet I found the practice a little odd. The surface has a soft fuzzy texture, so I am hoping that it won't cause problems with colored pencils.

My only complaint is the size of the board
4/5

I bought this because I needed a smaller board than I use for other projects. In this board, I see almost identical colors to my Karger kool board (which I absolutely However, this one has a cheap clip that doesn't hold a paddle comfortably when gripped. I'm fine with it, except for that.

Good enough, but damaged when it arrived
3/5

That sounds okay. Although it is wrapped in plastic, it has been scratched up quite badly, which makes me worry about its The review will be updated if the scratches have an effect on the All in all, it is a light and decently sized device. It is a cushioned paper clip that is gentle to use. It was holding a piece of 11x14 sketch paper when I captured this picture.
