The lights just came on. You might try scanning the sheet and then printing it on clear decal paper. You'd have to put a clear spray on it. Cut the decals out, put them on the plastic, cut the pieces out and you've got the positions of the deck house or whatever in their proper place. You can get decal paper in 8 1/2 x 11 sheets. :big_grin:

The thing is that paper supposed to stay - that's the final part:eyebrows:

I'd try a glue for paper and peel the paper off after the part is built. Just use it for a basic template. Any glue that stuck to the plastic could be easily removed. I'd make several copies of the paper model and keep the paper model as a master.

What sizes are you talking about, large sheets? How are you going to use it?
