Due to a terrible misreading of a hashtag, we prepared something to post tomorrow, then realised it was wrong. So today, let's celebrate #GalenTines Day. Here's some stuff Galen of Pergamon had to say about the gynaecological anatomy which influenced physicians for over a millennium...
I want to make stencils. However, my current use case is on a shot glass. A previous use case was on an object the size of a quarter.
I think I want a #cricut but I'm not sure how small of detail I can get.
For the glasses, I think I need letter heights ~= .25 inches (keeping in mind that the details of those letters are much smaller)
For the quarters, I wanted arbitrary icons/shapes so the size may be less of an issue
Is this doable? How fiddly is it? Assume I am a person who likes solving problems but has a 3 week deadline. Oh also, what model?
Also also, how locked into the software/system would I be? Like, am I forced to use a subpar app? Can I only use their fonts for a
example? Is #inkscape or similar workable?
Watched a bunch of videos of the Brother #scanncut#craft cutter.....and ordered one
The main model diffs are extra things in the box, more pre-loaded designs and Disney branding. So I just got the SDX85 and added a low-tack mat and vinyl blades
The software is optional but probably helpful. It doesn't run on #linux, but with a combination of the online version, #inkscape and the device itself I should be fine.
My first project is etched shot glasses for Mrs' #galentines party.
Then I need to etch some metal labels for a #map project I've fallen behind on. (This should be a whole separate post, really)
After that...#stickers/#decals? There's a lot of very clever #women who have figured out techniques to, for instance, make multi-colored designs using the scan feature, simultaneous printing and registration marks.
