Before printing the book, I had to learn how to format text and design the pages. I opted for printing four pages per A4 sheet, which was not all that easy when printing about 400 pages which then need to be flipped and printed over again.

I'm using Scribus for the layouts. It's clunky and annoying but it's opensource and free. I've included the source file here: drive.proton.me/urls/4DQVGYRVY if anyone wants to try and print this book by themselves :blob_nom_cookie:

Book crafting has been living in head non stop ever since i've read my first fanfiction novel. I just had to have certain works on my bookshelf and so i did :blob_rave: This project began with scoring a second-hand inkjet printer for just 8€. The Epson stylus SX235W is old but it still works just fine. I have working ink cartridges for it too, so it is just a matter of refilling them with ink and resetting the chips, and i saw many offers on local marketplace where people sell old ink cartridges for pennies so the whole operation should be inexpensive at worse

Custom Art Framing, a 🧵

Since I'm fully retiring from my semi-retired part-time job (2 - 6hr days/wk) at the end of the month I thought I'd frame several items for myself while I can still get an employee discount.

I invite you to join me for the ride!

This is the chop room where we chop the molding legs to size. I'm chopping in-stock molding. Black looks best with B&W photos & is also inexpensive. 1/12

Color landscape photo showing a narrow white workbench attached to a wall. On the bench are five stacks of cut to length black (between 8-12 inches) molding used to frame picture. In the upper right corner of the bench is a stack of three wood planks the top one has metal knife blades attached to it and a plastic card that reads, "Apex Saw Works, Dull." A sign on the wall reads, "Do not leave molding on the counter! Pit it back in the correct spot or cut it down for a ready made. See sign for length needed for ready mades." Below and somewhat tucked under the bench top is a green colored metal machine that is a foot operated chopper for chopping the forty-five degree angles on the end of the picture frame molding. There's a trashcan to the right under the bench and a white bucket on the left with blocks of wood in it.

I sketched this out yesterday and dreamed of crows last night. The last linocut I made was in school.

Also this morning I learned there is a Tag der Druckkunst on March 15th. (Day of print art tag-der-druckkunst.de/ )

Let's showcase our #printart on this day on the Fediverse too!
