I have been asked to try and salvage some data from original blueprints, well, actually whiteprints, as they are more correctly called.
.
My plan is to try and trace the detail and get that reprinted. I was thinking along the lines of using the sort of plastic/acetate sheet we used 30+ years ago which is glossy on one side and rough on the other. My father had some "Rotring" Draughtsman pens he used for this sheet material.
Any suggestions for the name of this plastic and maybe a source? Any other suggestions for a way to draw it all up?
Only just started on this idea so looking for suggestions. 30+ drawings, 1m sq. Mostly Morris and Mini factory drawings.
Thanks
