Be resourceful. 3) I made a key years ago following the steps outlined in a handout from a PTG seminar. It came out quite well and wasn't too dificult. I believe I could still dig up the information and Fax or Snail-Mail it to you if you'd like. Unfortunately, I don't have a scanner yet so it isn't in a digitized (E-Mailable) format.
