That checker board looks cool. Are each of those squares ironed on separately? Man that would be alot of work.

I would have thought the cub yellow and the black bands would be contrasting enough, even when overcast. So far, all my lessons have been in bright sunlight. The LT-40 pretty much has the colors shown on the box and your right, the sun makes the top bright and the bottom dark. The markings are not very distinguishable (especially 4 mistakes high).
