[Nfb-krafters-korner] Realistic object drawings.

Fri May 13 10:50:44 UTC 2016

The diagrams for my plastic canvas book were done on this machine.  I made plastic canvas samples of each step and some how, they recreated them on the machine!
To show the 2 colors, the dots were more distinct on one color than the other. This was a method of shading.

Does anyone remember the thermoform drawings?  Is the thermofor paper and machine available now.  If so, maybe an object can be placed on the machine and melted into the plastic sheet.

Hello Everyone,
I had an idea to draw around outlines in stencils to get realistic drawings of objects, using a spur wheel. However, I've looked what stencils are really used for and, based on that, I don't think I'll be able to do this with them. I think they are really used for printing copies of the image they represent.

I've tried typing in things like, plastic objects to draw around on paper, two D molds for paper drawings... Has anyone got any ideas about what I'm actually looking for? I really want flat, hard representations of objects such as flowers and animals. I want all the elementslike lines and relief presented as gaps so that I can draw around the object and my version will look like the original.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

PS I think I've finally got the curves along the right lines for my Celtic Cross.
Very best wishes,
Sandra.
