Just for grins I tried magazine paper from Model Aviation to see the results. It transfered nicely to an unpreped board. A cleaned board would be even better. Still want to try Time magazine paper. Also for grins I placed a straight edge across my iron and found it was very concave. Maybe .060" out of flat. That makes it very hard to press evenly on a flat board. I was dragging it across the paper to get the best pressure on the toner for transfer. So I'm off looking for a flat travel iron. If I had room I'd try Bill's pre- heating technique and a laminator. Next I have to see about paper stretch, since I can cnc the holes. Thanks for all the great tips gents. Mike
