Questions
How do I start “Open-lid grand piano”?
Use a 5mm midi pegboard at least 127×117 cells, with a one- or two-cell margin so you can lift the board. Start from a corner or the dark outline and follow the preview above. This chart uses about 6679 beads in 10 colors—pick them from the legend on this page.
How do I iron it without melting colors together?
Expert boards are wide and tight. Iron in sections and let each patch cool before peeling the paper. Beads face up, baking paper on top, iron set flat. Wait a few seconds before peeling.
Will this work on Perler, Hama, and common pegboards?
Yes. It is a 5mm midi chart, so Perler, Hama, and common pegboards share the same pitch. Buy beads by the codes on this page, not by a store package name.
What should I follow while I place beads?
Follow the preview on this page. The downloadable PNG adds the English title, a short symbol in each cell, bead codes, and counts, so you can print it and keep it beside the board. HD export, PDF, and board splits are in the app.
