Some of the stuff I've been saving up for inspiration for projects

Everything Else

Here’s is my Pinterest board for cool prints I’ve found over the past couple of years. Some I might use straight from the source, some are just ideas on how to do certain cool things that I have in mind.
Thought I’d share my board to see who else wanted to share.

Those are a lot of Ukiyo-e (Japanese Woodblock prints). Look up David Bull of Mokuhankan on youtube to see how they are actually made. I have a friend that got inspired by the man and has taken up woodblock carving since.

I’d love to take a laser-stab at him and engrave a print on blocks without all the manual labour. It’s one of the projects I have in my creative projects folder.

Looking forward to what you are going to make!

I thought for sure there was another thread where several folks shared links to their Glowforge-related Pintrest boards but I just can’t find it.

Yup. I had to break my laser project Pintrest board into Glowforge Jewelry Inspiration, Glowforge Signage Inspiration, and about a half dozen other boards.

Thanks for the tip!!
I figured the :glowforge: would be awesome for woodblock printing, so I started collecting reference on it.

I also need to better organize my boards, I have very specific boards and some that are a hodgepodge of stuff… :crazy_face:

Hmm, much easier to find if you search for the correct spelling of Pinterest. Thanks!
