Thread: Bullets

Greetings All,
Many many years ago, as a trainee draughtsman we used cartridge paper to line the surface of our red wood drawing boards. This was a hand made paper that was made a sheet at a time. We wet it and laid it on the surface of the board and glued the edge down with gummed brown paper tape. Once dry it gave you a smooth surface to tape or pin your drawing sheets down to. Within a few years we moved on to synthetic sheets you stuck down with double sided tape. Have read about paper patched (or jacketed) projectiles but never connected the two until I read one of the above posts. Just shows how old you get you can still learn something from time to time.
Regards Grandpamac.
