I have some heavy letterhead paper which I think would be just about 
right. The original stuff was probably even thinner and more like 
typing paper, pretty much what you see there. I would suggest going 
thinner than the 1/32 you have. The good news here is that little 
thickness is necessary, because the surfaces are already quite flat.
