    Hospitals are transferring x-rays to discs and are getting rid of the old film. That's how I got mine.

    did you all know you can take whatever you need for a template drawn on paper to a glass shop? They will cut it out of acrylic. We use to have a "Central Hardware" so any stores that carries acrylic will probably cut your template. I'd call & check first tho....

    Thanks for sharing your wonderful tip! I have 3 sisters that are doctors so maybe I can get one of them to help me out. Can't wait to give this technique a try.
