Default Glad Press and seal for pattern rough out

In the latest Wood magazine issue there is a tip on using Glad press and seal wrap to transfer patterns to wood. I just tried it with great success. I was able to apply the press and seal to my pattern,sticky side down, from WCI, trace the pattern and then apply to the wood and press down. The pattern stays in place (for the most part) while cutting out pattern on scroll saw. I will still have to put other lines in place with pencil though. Hey every little bit helps this beginner carver. Just thought I would share it. I would use a fine tip sharpie marker to trace the lines.
