Default Delrin sheets continued: transferring a pattern for engraving

Oh well, I'll use both eventually.



What I need to do is transfer a pattern to the acetal for engraving it
by hand, using a dremel router with a 1/16" mill bit. CNC engraving is
not financially practical here--and for the patterns I need, a stencil
will not work.


Why not silkscreen print just the area to be engraved
directly on to the plastic? See p. 56:
