Paul,
There is a site on the Internet that you can make your own grid paper if you have a printer that is big enough to print the size you need. Let me know if you are interested and I will look it up for you.

Try an art supply or drafting supply company. Also the online stores of places like Staples, Office Depot, etc.

Paul, Staples, Office Max, and Office Depot all carry 11x17 desk pads and they have a type that the sheets are of 1/4" grid paper. The pads usually have about 50 sheets on them, and are pretty inexpensive, under $10-12 IIRC.

Like this one. http://incompetech.com/graphpaper/lite/ Works pretty good. You can tone down the lines to workable status. I wasn't real happy with the grid size. What I printed didn't come out a true size. YMMV. Jim.

Jim,
Yes, that is the same site that I go to when I need graph paper. It has worked well for anything that I have needed. Staples is where I go for graph paper if the site doesn't give me what I need.
