'How to Duplicate your Fingerprints'

13-04-2005 13:01

The Fingerprint Duplication Archive (rupture.co.uk/fda/) is no longer taking new members.

The Trustees of the archive have agreed that the dissemination of fingerprint duplication information is more appropriate than the creation of a centralised archive; and have produced a 'How to Duplicate your Fingerprints' Information Sheet at
rupture.co.uk/fda/infosheet1/infosheet1.pdf.

For those who have already contributed to the archive the service will
continue as usual.

Thanks for your ongoing support of this project,
