RasterWeb!
@rasterweb I found these posts extremely confusing until I figured out that you’re making plates for *ink* printing and not 3D printer bed plates (to transfer an impression onto the bottom layer of a model). Maybe worth a clarification!
@dwineman Sorry! There are two links in the first paragraph that may be useful.
@rasterweb Yes, read those, and I think I got hung up on the phrase “3D printed printing plates” using two different meanings of “print.” Entirely possible this is just a me problem!
@dwineman You’ll want to avoid the post where I 3D printed a printing press to make 2D prints on paper using laser etched plates… or maybe not?
