I swear I'm not converting 
but I needed to figure a way to make some finished sheet steel loads. After looking around the only thing that was easy enough to cut straight and work easy with was paper, I used .007 card stock that was collecting dust.
I cut the sheets 1.25" X 3.5"
Used 3 dabs of elmers glue, stacked them 12 sheets up
Then mixed 50/50 Silver and Dark Grey and covered the sheets
I took some electrical tape and straight edge cut some thin strips to use for the baling
It was quite easy and I'm satisfied with the results:
