The wave form of the puzzle's should still exist.  <br /><br />After the cutting you could tape the puzzle's on a DIN-A4 paper, so that the printer can pull it in.   <br /><br />You will realise that the length of the puzzle is bigger than a normal DIN-A4 paper. The trick is now to find a good pattern for the puzzle and how to tape the rest of the puzzle (no lasertoner on it) on another DIN-A4 paper so that the laserprinter will produce a pattern on the puzzle, which has no gap or something like that.  <br /><br /><a name="more"></a><br />After that (several hours :D) and with a lot of careful handling, you could varnish the puzzle's with something, so that the toner will be still on the plastic. <br /><br /><div class="mobile-photo" style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPt7_XCC0ncZnV7UaYPENm_Jxi__-yKyRM06PguJTrBiyKv3fFmiku9jUZq1z_ayb9IgVfqEUS3HHk643OOa3lv2bjHVE3fsqpYmHqXzypHVmmUvVnWxMbDDFzEDjDI4ngaqfM_DsZINPl/s1600/ikea_hacks_3-781458.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5761842857095845442" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPt7_XCC0ncZnV7UaYPENm_Jxi__-yKyRM06PguJTrBiyKv3fFmiku9jUZq1z_ayb9IgVfqEUS3HHk643OOa3lv2bjHVE3fsqpYmHqXzypHVmmUvVnWxMbDDFzEDjDI4ngaqfM_DsZINPl/s640/ikea_hacks_3-781458.jpg" width="550" /></a></div><br />Read that heat will fixate the toner (careful!)  <br /><br />I uploaded a pattern that I found by searching google. It is better when you search for a vector graphic for creating a DIN-A4 pattern without margin  <br /><br />Good luck !  <br /><br />~ Briegel, germany

Then we assembled the Fillsta pendant.  We assembled according to directions, only using the pendant itself, the light cord and the plastic mounting bracket. After that, all we had to do was hardwire Fillsta and fan together.  We used the mouting plate from the original light kit that came with the fan so that the pendant wasn't hanging only by the light bulb.  <br /><br /><div class="mobile-photo" style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLi81vGBw7kCicdK84RpI-9f-lcbElzwVZ9YTlbJ3Qg6c1grGkVS3kTTRzZ6DUpTfwm8gVaHsvp-IryNkEIShT5hKvQGaIQxDAvq5ZEhNnfwRjq9guymrVaKf9zKtOKzfbjTGXupBAQe8/s1600/IMG_0936-798356.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5612677002010639250" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLi81vGBw7kCicdK84RpI-9f-lcbElzwVZ9YTlbJ3Qg6c1grGkVS3kTTRzZ6DUpTfwm8gVaHsvp-IryNkEIShT5hKvQGaIQxDAvq5ZEhNnfwRjq9guymrVaKf9zKtOKzfbjTGXupBAQe8/s640/IMG_0936-798356.jpg" width="450" /></a></div><div class="mobile-photo" style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5PoEOxZTqBxtGk3ExWGFmq_NAO9tBkK8PVaT74C9HwaTZ9cdu5eFRRpuTGMCY4fvO2JV0Mr3Nr4MF2Z6B-qK3al-uAe09c28DR5qzeHUmdYHEEa-qNP-tyIhO9iYEd2KsLdOoiINtCuU/s1600/IMG_0935-799764.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5612677007133183362" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5PoEOxZTqBxtGk3ExWGFmq_NAO9tBkK8PVaT74C9HwaTZ9cdu5eFRRpuTGMCY4fvO2JV0Mr3Nr4MF2Z6B-qK3al-uAe09c28DR5qzeHUmdYHEEa-qNP-tyIhO9iYEd2KsLdOoiINtCuU/s640/IMG_0935-799764.jpg" width="450" /></a></div><br />See more of the <a href="http://hausofgerz.wordpress.com/2011/05/30/when-fill-met-fan/">Fillsta fan</a>. <br /><br />~ Lauren, AZ
