New achievement unlocked: I've been working on a project with a colleague to correctly write in Braille and then I've figured out how to 3D print an object with the Braille embossed at the correct size. It's probably not perfect, but it should be acceptable. The image is my test print.
Attached: 1 image It's always fun when people come and show us what they do with their Boxes. Yesterday Dr Alex Ball from the Natural History Museum visited and brought his collection of pollens, insects, sand and sugar 3D prints. He uses them with him Museum in a Box to explain microscopy and scale. 5 pence coins for scale 🤣 #GLAM #museum #weeknotes #microscopy #VisuallyImpaired #3Dprinting
@Klassika lots of things for me to read, and much more for me to learn, thank you!
I was concerned about the readability (is that the right word?) of my print because the edges of each dot are pretty ragged, so as a first attempt and because I don't have much Braille to print I was just going to file the edges off, but it seems like some of the stuff you've sent me has other methods for me to try.
