I applied the pattern labels to the black limba boards, placing three labels on each board. Each board accommodates 27 hippos, and I have also started on a part of another board. This setup will yield a total of 275 hippos, plus four extras. I always aim to create some additional pieces in case something goes wrong. If all the hippos turn out well, I will ship the extras to the customer.
I wanted to crosscut between the labels with my miter saw, but I couldn't get the sticky labels aligned straight enough to ensure clearance across the entire area. In hindsight, I should have placed one label on each end and one label in the center. This arrangement would have given me enough room to use the miter saw.
