Hi all,

I just found the cartographers Guild website & descided to sign up. I've been in the midst of creating my second comissioned pen and ink map which will promote artist's studios, galleries, museums and slow food along the coast of New Brunswick Canada, and Maine. There are a load of seaways and ocean in view this time, so I'd like it to have nautical feel. In particular, I'm trying to figure out the classical map borders which have markings with numbered degrees indicated (I have no idea what this is, but guess there is a formulatic use of this degree/numbering/measurement system). I'd like to be able to do that same thing around the border of my new map - any idea anyone?
Many thanks,

Figurehead
