Guide for Wall Layout

We've come up with some formulas for you to follow that spaces the calendars in different ways.

For each type of organization and spacing just plug in the values provided for the distances below, where

(a) is the distance between each nail in a row

(b) is the distance between each nail in a column

(c) is the total distance of the entire calendar set horizontally 

(d) is the total distance of the entire calendar set vertically.


And to assure that all this works, here are the distances from the nail to the top, bottom and side of the frame.  This is for a standard 11x14" MCS acrylic box frame:




Note:  Make sure the measurements given above for the nail to edges of the frame match the actual frames you're using.  If it doesn't, all of what follows below will be off!  (In that case you'd be on your own then, sorry!)
