for printing i choosed the easyest option. i just copied the pic into a word document. there i sized it down, till it looked right for my figures.

i learned from the first link. that took up more than 2 mega space.
now i just put the first row of boxes into the .doc.
anybody interested can copy that row and fill the page with it before printing.

I just printed it from the page and built it full size looks like a big packing crate!!
 
Very good Korm - neatly done - I use Word too. If I have any space on a sheet when printing signs or lettering I make the odd box or two for later use. Wrapping them round a piece of Balsa helps in our quite humid climate (80% plus in summer!). Generally use a Pritt Stick for glueing but superglue might be given a chance.

Thanks for the links guys, I'll be making mine up later.

I like the Balsa idea, but will coat it in knotting first, keeps it weather proof and the glue takes better
 
Sorry Korm

knotting is a sealer, usually with shellac in it, applied to mostly resinous woods and not all over but just to the knots to stop them weeping resin

Edit but you can apply it all over if you want to also waterproof it

what I was refering to above was its original use & subsequent name given to it because of its original use
 
Korm, it's very good for sealing Balsa and cardboard, gives them a hard surface, can be sanded and then painted and as I've said is weather proof. What would be similar in Paraguay I have no idea matey
 
thanks both. now i got the idea.


don, your first answer made me think of a former neighbour of ours.
she never washed the wool. before making strings she only combed out the bigger things from it.
everything, she made, from stuffed bedding to sweaters and socks felt and smelled somewhat special....

(things got a bit less sticky, after the first few washings with homemade soap.)
