PerryL Posted October 15, 2004 Report Share Posted October 15, 2004 (edited) If you're more of a hands on guy, you could always buy a Tracer Projector and take a picture of an explorer and trace it on Paper taped to the wall. If you have a neck that you can use, hold the neck up to the pic to get the size fairly close to scale size. Cut it out and that would be your template. Or apply that paper pattern to some masonite to have a permanant one. You can get those projectors at many art stores for cheaper than a template and you could make your own from then on.

MzI Posted October 17, 2004 Report Share Posted October 17, 2004 basically the full size will fit on a piece of paper 36x48" there is some thing i think you hafta change the units to mm or inches or sumthing like that not exactly sure another way to do it would be to convert the file to a jpeg and have kinkos or some other printer store that has plotters print it for you MzI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
