This month's Flygin Models included a quick note in the "Letters" section on transferring parts drawings from photocopy shhets to balsa sheets for cutting.
I've tried it with dry irons and last night with my wife's nail polish remover (acetone plus other stuff). Results were really iffy -- one or two portions of lines were transferred easily, everything else was too faint to be useful.
What was I doing wrong? Should I have put a weight on the sheet after soaking with with acetone to ensure the transfer? Should I have used pure acetone?
Since acetone is a flammible, I already know that the rags and such go outside into the garbage. Any other precautions that I should be taking beside not breathing the fumes?
