I've played games for a long time and one of my favorite games is that of Battletech. However the one thing that always frustrated me is the lack of a large number of different maps, and when maps were available the fact that everything was a flat 2D scale. So I decided to take up the challenge of building my own custom maps using hexagons that I cut from XPS foam using a hot wire cutting device, in this case a Proxxon Thermocut. The process is fairly straight forward but it took me a decent amount of iteration to get it as accurate and simple as I have today so I wanted to make this video to share my process with the community.
