ABSTRACT:
Overall shape replicates of objects of known shape and size are formed of a thin sheet material and are provided on a first side with one or more reference marks and/or apertures at positions which correspond to specific locations on the corresponding object at which support force should be provided for securely mounting the object to a supporting surface. In a preferred embodiment, the other side of each replicate is provided with a pressure-sensitive, releasable adhesive material, preferably leaving an edge portion of each replicate free of adhesive to enable temporary releasable adhesion of the replicate to the support surface. Repeatable removal of a replicate enables the user to visualize the corresponding object in harmony with other objects and/or nearby features. Once a final location for each replicate is determined, the user can apply means such as nails, screws, or the like to the support surface through the replicate, peel off the replicate, and then mount the corresponding object precisely as and where oriented and desired. The replicates may be provided with a peelable protective film covering the adhesive material until use. Replicates of standardized shape and size may be conveniently stored as pads or as an elongate roll with adjacent replicates defined and separable at lines of perforations. Optional or additional adhesion may be provided to mount a large replicate to a rough surface or under a horizontal surface by applying conventional removable adhesive tape to the replicate.
