But printing goes on and on and on

[anti_cyclone]

I spent the weekend alternately printing and doing nothing. There was quite a lot of both, now that I think about it. I think I've finished the necessary dozen prints for the print exchange, and I've done some tinkering with another shaped plate. I'm hoping to do a proper edition of it before the final class. Hm, will need to consider how I want

I am all a-envy over that g plate. Clearly I was not insane ambitious enough in school to cut my plates into anything other than little rectilinear things. An oversight on my part. The almost-machine polish marks are especially pleasing.

The first looks like it should be modified into a colorbar graphic with the phrase, "Letterpress is love." Heh.

Hee hee. I've blown my cover with this bit of letterpress: no matter how much I stalk around all dressed in black with a flapping leather trenchcoat, the world will know that I secretly like pretty rainbows.

I'm kind of waiting for Jack Spade or somebody to tell me "Letterpress is GAY."

As for the g...insane. Insane. All those years of practice torturing metal with jeweler's tools is finally paying off. Filing the beveled edges was the worst, and I haven't gotten as far as burnishing it yet.

I can't believe I'm doing this instead of sleeping, but there you have it.

Damn, that's funny. Also, I think now I might have to do a little more typesetting and printing, because I can think of a number of people who need this in sticker form. And I'm pretty sure I still have a couple of sheets of sticker-paper somewhere. Heh heh heh.
