[Heathkit] Any Ideas On Replacement Or Restorations HO-10 Grid Lines?

[peter markavage]

Clear laser, inkjet, or write-on transparency sheets are available from
any office supply store (Staples, Office Max, Office Depot). Green
transparency sheets, thin or even a few mils thick, generally can be had
at a craft-type store. Any spreadsheet program can generate you a grid of
whatever size you want. Many graphical programs can generate grids. If
you're good, you can also use a drawing program. There are colored
transparency sheets available that are copier or laser friendly. Just
make sure they are before you shove one in a machine.
