The only colour laser printer I have access to is at work... and these days, the new-fangled laser printers are so 'smart' and automated that there isn't many options available to set... it senses the paper, sets itself up to use the paper and prints... not something i can muck around with to use heavy stock settings... sigh

No special techniques or paper. Regular card stock, like Aaron says laser printer with heavy stock setting seems to work well, glue, regular white PVA.

I just like to build neat. Good designs = good builds.
