Last year when I was barely working on the donor wall, we talked about making a fablab sign kind of like the ceramics sign across from it. It’s a neat format/idea! I was too busy with donor wall to do anything but I kept thinking about it and wondered about just pitching up a format.
So I’m proposing something - I haven’t checked with Dave or anybody, so this is just a thought right now…
We need seven volunteers, that way each letter is a cool unique style.
The rectangles are all 9 inches tall, 5.5 inches wide, like the Ceramics sign. And let’s say no more than 1" thick? 1/2" thick - less is okay.
We don’t want the colors to be awkward (red next to green, 2/3 blue, etc) so I randomized some and came up with this:
And we’d use our three favorite tools:
F - 3d printer @Teya
A - vinyl cutter @kim
B - laser cutter @ladeana
L - 3d printer @gemma
A - laser cutter @K0PSK
B - vinyl cutter @Moon_Goddess
border - anyone want to volunteer?
If you take a letter, you pick the font, style, take the colors above as a loose suggestion (generally red, generally blue etc), use the tool but you can use other tools and pretty much whatever you want, feel FREE to use more than one tool to make your letter, venture into the woodshop, paint, glue, etc, be creative!
What do we think, makers? This way we don’t even have to set another meeting up, pure forum effort and letters just magically happen!
Also you all know I am not the most artistic so if someone wants to propose a different color set, feel free. I figure they’ll go all over the place anyway so I just did it fast.
