An old fabric/wallpaper printing block we bought last week, comprising a heavy wooden block with the design built up in metal shapes. Makes a rather lovely print, as you can see here
This is my entry for the Rebrick "Modular Buildings Anniversary Contest".
Check it out here ;)
"LEGO has included many printed tiles&decorations in their sets in the past. These tiles represent money, pictures, newspapers, etc. But where do they come from? Of course, from the printing office. There isn't a single printing office in LEGO City or in the Modular Buildings line, so I've decided to build one. There is a printing machine, drawer, table, and some shelves in it. I've included it in the first floor of the Brick Bank, because there is a huge open space which I think is too empty."

Sverresborg Trøndelag Folk Museum is the 3rd largest cultural history museum in Norway and was founded in 1909. The location around the ruins of King Sverre’s castle was utilized from 1914 on, and today the area spans more than 70 acres.

A newspaper printing press at The Dallas Morning News in Plano, TX. If you've never toured your local newspaper production facility, think about it. It's a facinating business, albeit quite antiquated.
If you have time, check out this video, especially section 3 which shows the presses running.
No Bricklink orders for Toby -- he can print his own parts right here just by calling them up on the attached console.

Shameless plug!! Mini photo exhibit coming in March (San Francisco), and a few prints are currently available for purchase on Etsy.
The former Goole Times Printing Office, with printing works behind. The paper was originally founded in 1853 as monthly publication but by 1869 became weekly, then known as the Goole and Marshland Weekly Times. Ten years later it became The Goole Weekly Times.

Each blue box is a printing press which can print full color both sides of the newsprint paper. The Dallas Morning News has 17 presses, I think. What you don't see is that these presses are 4 stories high. It starts with a roll of paper and the press prints, folds, and collates all in one continuous process. Basically, raw material goes in, a newspaper comes out. Fascinating....
If you have time, please watch this video, especially section 3 which shows the presses as they run.
Printing process shot. This print was inspired by Sol LeWitts long instructional titles where its up to the draftsperson to determine line orientation. Nov. 2007
My printer finished making my samples today and emailed me this pic :) cannot wait to get them and get some more made :D
What other prints would you guys like?
From the back cover:
Rand Hammond had treated many kinds of animals -- but he'd never been forced to handle the kind of seething wildcat who'd just dropped in on him out of nowhere . . . a wildcat who walked on two feet, with lust in her eye and a lie in her soul.
Recently I had the opportunity to use some 3D printers, and I decided to use them to make the Nuva Cube. The cube is made of PLS, has a length/width/height of 2 inches, and is composed of four 1 7/8" x 1/8" x 2" and two 2" x 1/8" x 2" faces each glued onto one of the sides of a 1 3/4" cube (rather, that's the dimensions of the computer model… as you can tell, the technology is still pretty finicky, and the measurements don't always come out right). I designed it in Tinkercad and glued all the pieces save one together, but the actual printing was done by someone who actually knew what he was doing. :P (The piece I didn't glue was the one on the bottom of Lewa's face since I wasn't there when it finished printing and it was the last piece not yet glued on.) I also have to give credit to fearmaker782 of deviantArt as I frequently referred back to his own System Nuva Cube during the design process since each face is set up on a clear 8 x 8 grid.
