    WAY COOL! If I only had access to a van­der­cook let­ter­press, I would totally be try­ing this out! Thanks for the cool post!

    This is beyond genius! I think I need to go back and rethink some of my child­hood toys too. The pos­si­bil­i­ties are endless!

    Love the idea!
    In fact, MIAT museum in Ghent (Belgium) orga­nize weekly work­shops for chil­dren (6−12 years old) where they learn to print using lego tiles. Children like it very much.

    I don’t get it. A more detailed write up by Courtney would have been great.

    Hi Peter, I’m not sure if you don’t get the process or the appeal of it. It was the former…If you look at the sec­ond image, you can see that actual LEGO pieces have been used in place of a let­ter­press plate or wood blocks to make the design. Hope that helps/

    Thank you Courtney, I under­stand now. Nice. Btw, I’ve never seen translu­cent lego pieces like that before. Where did you get them/what are they called?
