Psydon Ship - Command Module woes

Grrrr... had a reminder why i don't like Vac Forms...
So, i've trimmed out the CM shape. It needs sticking to plasticard for the underside. Put the CM onto a sheet of the stuff, draw round it in pencil then cut the shape out.
Then its a simple job of glueing the two together right?
Wrong.
Seems the Vac Form is so thin that, when i pressed down lightly to hold it in place when drawing round it, the shape actually splayed out a bit. Meaning the shape i drew and cut out is far too big...
Going to Blu Tac the shape back to it and draw again.
