ChanceyFleetCricut cutting machines, ubiquitous in schools, libraries and makerspaces, can be used to make embossed or stenciled #TactileGraphics. A Braille embosser costs at least $1500 — Cricuts cost a fifth of that or less. Today I learned that I can handle the hardware and make great stencils: all that holds a Blind #maker back is a set of unlabeled controls in the software. Does anyone know somebody at #Cricut I could talk to about improving #accessibility? Boosters beloved on this one!
Chris@ChanceyFleet Can you use the Cricut to label the buttons? This would still involve a sighted interpreter for setup, but not for daily use
@50htz The tangible buttons are fine. The onscreen buttons are programmatically unlabeled :-(
@ChanceyFleet Well, dang. I'm not a huge fan of the software (my husband uses it), but you can't argue with the price of the hardware. It's low because they want to sell their consumables and monthly subscription
Best of luck with your communications with the company
