8'x24' cut vinyl billboard

[Doubletake]

I have a one color cut vinyl billboard. Wanted to know best techniques to layout so I can run each of the 6 panels through the laminator. Is there a way to layout so each cut panel lines up with the next without laying all the panels down together like the finished product.

Thanks

Why are you laminating cut vinyl?

Why are you laminating cut vinyl?

probably just wants to use the laminator to apply.

I would save the headaches and math, and just hand apply

Would you lay them all out to apply by hand?

I would only lay down adjacent panels

Back in "the day" I had a wall with brackets to hold up to an 8'x40' sign and I applied the lettering by hand. Now in my old age (42) I letter two 4x8's at a time and keep going down the line, never seeing the whole sign until install....makes me nervous, but since I am now a one man shop easier to do. Never messed up yet. Double check all measuring. NO WAY I would try applying with a laminator, you get off 1/4" each panel by the last board you are off a couple inches.
