I just use masking tape but I think spray mount will work well. It will leave a sticky residue though.

Yes, I used a small amount of spray mount adhesive on the paper and left it to dry a little until it just had a slight tackiness left. That way it leaves no residue on the board.

I've also built an MDF Mendel 90 - welcome to the club :-)
By accident (the printer misunderstood me) I printed the entire base template on sticky-back vinyl. This would have been very good, I think, if I hadn't left it on for 3 days before attempting to remove it again! That led to a lot of work with various glue removal tools, which didn't do much for the painted finish.

I must point out, I don't drill through the paper, so it doesn't need much holding down, just a few bits of masking tape to stop it sliding.
I prick the cross hairs with a sharp point and then I remove the paper and use an automatic centre punch to make the pin pricks into bigger cones.
For super precision from paper templates I use an optical centre punch followed by a spot drill.

Thanks for bringing that up. I would have drilled right through the paper.
