 How should I print this Eryngii?

I would like to print this king oyster P. Eryngii.
Has anyone got any tips for me?
Should I wait until the cap margin unrolls?
I think the gills won't be in contact with the foil.
Or should I make a funnel out of the foil?

Put some black paper underneath it, and when you start seeing spores, cut off the cap and transfer to a piece of foil. Or you can leave the plunger from your syringes black thingy part up, and the spores will be dropped right onto the part of the plunger that contacts the water in your spore syringe. You put the plunger back into the syringe body, suck up some sterilized water when you're ready, and inject. Have fun and thanks to peterthinks for the syringe idea.

flugelizor,
you probably won't get many (if any) spores from your cap. it looks too young.
here is a picture my large--very large 6" kings. i had to wait for these guys to really break open after they reached your size. patience here:
check these out:
even if you don't get spores this time try with your next flush and let them really get mature, or do like i did and pick off some young kings and put them in the fridge in a plastic baggie until you're ready to plate or transfer to new grain masters. they work well that way too. all is not lost yet. i still have a fully colonized jar i can't use because it's too warm down here.

He just put the paper around the cap, and he didn't actually cut the cap off, so it will continue to grow. You can see where he taped the paper back together.

That black paper turned white that same day, so I saved it, then I cut off the cap and printed it on flat foil. The resulting print was not heavy, but sort of milky translucent and wet.
Then I printed mushroom #2 using a method similar to the black paper, but with a sterile foil cone while it was still growing.
That one also gave a sort of milky print.
I dried all the prints, and it looks like I have 3 light prints to play with. That's good enough. This was a grocery store clone, so I want to reset the "senecense clock"
Oh - and I left out the best part. I ate them of course! OM NOM NOM NOM!

Nice going! 
I'm about to try the very same thing.
