    Thanks guys - Thom Sturgill gave me some hints. This is my first burn. I have a new Optima burner and I believe his name is Pat at Optima gave me the hint to transfer the pattern in reverse on clear plastic (flimsey) sheets. You rub it without moving it and your done. Really made the job easy. First one took about an hour to burn and the second just over 30 minutes.
