I have a printer/scanner combo with software that can scale up/down. In the past I have scanned in some parts, especially if the parts are flat.

Helps a lot as you can just print onto paper then cut it out in plasticard.

Milk jug as a lens? Trying to difuse a light?

Try getting some acrylic sheet and roughly sanding it with 120 grit. Ends up as a milky plastic and can be glued with CA.

Bit late but I always buy my plastic from Stephen Webster:

I live near them so always collect the plastic in person.

They do 8*4 sheets but not in <1mm styrene
