[nabs-l] diagramming and APH paper

[Nicole B. Torcolini at Home]

Actually, drawing backwards is not that hard. Also, there is a pen looking 
tool. You can poke dotes that stick out the back of the paper when it is 
facing front ways and then flip it over and connect the dots. There is a 
board with holes on the edges and a ruler that locks into the holes so that 
you can have a straight edge without having to hold it down.

>> Hi all,

>> But they sound useful.
>> I wonder if you have to draw backwards with that tracing wheel.

>> I was wondering how good this idea would be. Sounds like a great solution

>> Thanks
