The 3D Printable Braille Typeface Project
Have us print this for you
PLA from £6 inc. UK delivery on letter-sized prints. We slice, print on a calibrated Creality K2 / Bambu A1, QC and post.
After seeing some typefaces designed with Braille in mind I decided to take it on to try and create a new one that extrudes a custom 2d typeface with braille embedded on top. I created the letter forms in Adobe illustrator then imported svgs in blender to extrude and shape.
These are currently sized in accordance with <a href="http://www.brailleauthority.org/sizespacingofbraille/sizespacingofbraille.pdf
