Happy Thanksgiving.......You guys are all so nice and helpful here. Here is my problem: I know it sounds stupid, but since I don't have any more tracing paper, almost everything is on NCR paper, how do I trace a intricate round item onto a piece of wood? Then I need to cut it out, I have no scroll saw, but I have one of these high speed things like a roto-zip or whatever they call it. I have diamond cutters and tungsten cutters. I wonder if that works.
Do a Google search -- there was a thread on exactly this topic about a month ago, that offered many great ideas.

Any craft store, and even the craft section at Wal Mart, carries "graphite paper" sold for exactly this purpose. They even sell a little metal stylus with different sized balls on the ends.

Thanks a bunch, I'll go there tomorrow. I had no idea that they call that stuff graphite paper. Now I know.......Peter
Hey Doug thanks, I couldn't find it after I did a search on Google. I'll keep on looking........Peter
Look for an embossing stylus. I have a couple and they work very well, even with cheap carbon paper.

I found it. Thank you Doug, your follow up and help in this NG (and I'm very new) is so much appreciated. Bless you for being so nice. Thank you again, I guess knowing how to put the right words down in the Google search area is important.........Peter
