Shoot, I forgot that the alphabet cards have all the letters on them,
not just one letter per card. Thanks for calling my dumb moment Marty!
:)
In that case is anyone bringing a Perkins Brailler to convention that
I could borrow for a couple minutes? I could slate the cards but I
worry I might not get the spacing exactly the same on each card and I
want the cards to look identical except for which letter is on them. I
think doing them on the Perkins would be more uniform.
