Lisa,
Here is an interesting one that contains free mats for just about every
polyhedron known to man. May not be that useful to you, or what you are
looking for, but definitely fascinating and worth a look!

Quote from the site:
"Polyhedra are beautiful 3-D geometrical figures that have fascinated
philosophers, mathematicians and artists for millennia. On this site are
a few hundred paper models available for free."

I have used a few for text book production, and teachers may find them
useful to knock up a quick model or two.

Subject: [accessibleimage] websites with tactile diagrams

Hi,
I have been asked the following question -

"I was wondering if you knew of various web sites where people can
obtain (purchase or get for free) tactile diagrams suitable for swell >
/ capsule paper?"

Suggestions?

Thanks,
Lisa
