The clipboard provides some structural support to the lightboard. The clipboard means you can throw your setup вЂ” stack of blank 10f paper and all вЂ” into a backpack, knowing your pages are secure. If youвЂ™re a bottom pegs animator and you roll instead of flipping, youвЂ™re good to go.Because your standard clear clipboard is about the same thickness as your average plastic pegbar, your paper sits flush against your drawing surface! To get the placement right, put a piece of punched paper onto your pegbar (the one pictured here is from Lightfoot Ltd btw) and use it as a guide, making sure the whole page has space to fit into the clipboardвЂ™s metal clip.Keep in mind that if youвЂ™re a top pegs person who flips to check your animation, the clip can get in the way of that. Make sure you mount the clipboard flush to one side of the lightboard to leave some space on the opposite side for the pegbar.Next, I glue my pegbar directly to the lightboard with super glue, on the empty side of the lightboard, not quite centered, but actually shifted to the right a bit.

Find a little a shade, a little breeze, and animate anywhere!If you have any velcro lying around, use it to attach the powerbank to the bottom of the lightboard. Go to a park and sit in the grass, or on some concrete stairs. Having the pages securely under the clip as you work means you donвЂ™t have to worry about your frames flying everywhere when youвЂ™re animating outside. With the clipboard, they feel a lot more rugged.

The ubiquitous A3 lightboard pictured here comes with a USB cable, so no worries there.
