worlds smallest maze

This is the smallest maze I've ever made, and you can make it on your computer almost entirely free (that is if you include buying windows, the computer, the printer with ink and paper!)!

Note:Only ink jet printers with at least 300 dpi work, 600 dpi works best!

other than the stuff listed above, you'll need to download some image editor.
I posted a freebie! If you already have one, you can use it instead.

The pic below has stretched!

Step 1 Calculate the size

First, how many cells by how many cells do you want it?
For example 17x22.
Multiply the x and the y by 2 to get 34x44.
Add 1 to the x and the y to 35x45.
This is your size in pixels.

lol, I wish

[mbainrot]

Why not use a laser printer with DPI set to say. 1000?

Thats what I did for my exam notes once, size 6 print @ 1000DPI

im goiong to make the worlds bigest maze with the smallest pasages like this... the size of this make over and over again a billion times!!!!

[EnigmaMax]

yes, we'll all thank you for wasting so much paper and ink.

[Arbitror]

Hes trying to break a record! Come on!

[EnigmaMax]

well, at least keep it on your computer, don't print it.

[Instructables Shadow Robot]

No, I think he should print it. After all, it's his money...

[EnigmaMax]

so what? Its silly to cut down trees and burn plants for some stupid maze. he might as well just burn all of his money.

[cl0ney]

most paper is recycled, these days. i read that paper is typically fully sustainable, but it's way cool that you're conscientious about it. -Thanks! (Also, for the author: on the maze graphic it's spelled "mase." just a heads up.)

[Kolovision]

trees are already cut down...

[EnigmaMax]

...which would promote even more trees to fall to replace the ones that have turned into a paper maze.

[absolute zero]

wow, im sure hes goin to use SOOOOOO much paper isnt he............. he could use a thousand sheets an that would be one mabye two trees, an WHY AM I ARGUING OVER THE INTERNET, even better, WHY ARE YOU??!?!?!??!?!?!?

[EnigmaMax]

I agree, this is dumb. I think we should get over this.

[absolute zero]

exactly

[EnigmaMax]

ok

[saintshortckt]

hahahahah guys keep going please

[bowmaster]

I am a butt and I smell like cheese. That was my free verse poem. FREE VERSE IS NOT POETRY!!!!!!!!

[absolute zero]

awkward........

[then]

lol. free verse sorta can be poetry.

[Klaus Baude 123]

Of course free verse is poetry. Look at Walt Whitman.

[then]

blah

there thats poetry

[itsmanofpopsicle]

I love over extended comments onto comments!

[lunchboxslayer27]

grrrr i cant figure out how to change the resoulution in the freebie!! plz tell me!!!

[jonnxt]

when you have it in ful-sceen mode(default), you have to move the mouse to the edge, a window pops up. go to the left edde and click on resize. the resolution should be in there.

[lunchboxslayer27]

thx, lol. i made a huge 1, but i couldnt print it out lol

[kreeningsons]

So you're sure this is the world's smallest huh.

[Andrew546]

Why the word document?

[jonnxt]

its one of my mazes repeated hundreds of times to print out more than one on one page. I may make an rtf file to go with it.

[Andrew546]

I guess I need to be a little more blunt. I opened the doc and saw what it was... I'm wondering why the hell you put it in a word file to begin with. It just makes no sense. Word isn't the greatest thing ever for saving images. It also took forever to open. This would be much better suited to a B&W .gif image... or any image format for that matter (Except .jpg - that would be even worse than a word doc.)

[jonnxt]

oops! rtf doesn't have a high enough res!

[lnet]

Hi! That's OK! Have you done any other mazes? If so, what type of mazes have you done? Can you post some of them?

[Andrew546]

you wouldn't have to worry about the resolution if you actually put it in an image file, as opposed to a *text* file.

There is a reason for such things.
