Does anyone have any experience in making the horizontal grid spacing different than the vertical grid spacing?

    You can draw a Rectangle and use Object > Path > Split into Grid... and make the result into Guides: View > Guides > Make Guides.

    Thank you for this information. It works out way better than the rectangular grid tool. Regarding the same topic, can I make the intersection nodes of the new grid explicit snap points?

    Cheers!

    Turn View > Smart Guides On, than you can snap to guides or their intersections.
