PrintMom held her patterns down with the green-glass salt shaker and other
things found in the kitchen. I used to use books. Today, I went into
the garage and brought back a six-volt, four amp-hour battery with a
sticker on the side that says "brick".
I've never used bricked batteries from the uninterruptible power
supplies as pattern weights, but they are great for flattening things.

I have some lead donuts that work very well. I suspect a UPS battery
owrks great.
