Valjean Posted July 30, 2008 Posted July 30, 2008 I'm looking to buy some big white boards. So far I just see smaller ones. Where I work the large conference room boards are glass which I suspect is more expensive. (am I wrong?). I was just thinking of the basic white boards. I don't even care if they have frames. Ild like something about 4 feet x 8 feet (1.22 m x 2.44 m). Any good ideas where to buy these?
onethailand Posted July 30, 2008 Posted July 30, 2008 Office Depot or Makro Office should have these. Some of The Mall Department stores also have them.
Deke Posted July 30, 2008 Posted July 30, 2008 The larger shops that sell plywood also have the whiteboard type of laminate. By a 4 x 8 sheet of each and a can of contact cement; you're in business.

Deke Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 Thinking about it a little more, you could probably just glue the laminate stuff to the wall. It would be a more or less permanent installation though.
TopDogger Posted August 2, 2008 Posted August 2, 2008 The panaboards are very good if your after something a little more hi-tech..
chiangmaibruce Posted August 2, 2008 Posted August 2, 2008 Hey, someone beat me to it. Go to a timber shop and just select a sheet of plywood and a sheet of white laminate (and a can of adhesive). My wife started doing some tutoring and we looked at whiteboard prices/sizes. Then went the timber shop route and made one (big) for 540 baht! Fastened it to the wall with screws. Works just fine and we saved 000's.
bkkflyer Posted August 3, 2008 Posted August 3, 2008 Bought a 120 x 240 cm whiteboard a few months back. Think it was something like THB2000 delivered (Bangkok).
Heng Posted August 3, 2008 Posted August 3, 2008 Will be doing the same. To deal with the kids' writing/drawing on the wall phase without stifling their creative drives.
