Over-engineered Tiny Book: AI, Plotter, 3D Printer, and Love
2025-02-14
This post details the author's journey creating a tiny handmade book for his wife, packed with memories and inside jokes. He leveraged AI (Midjourney) for illustrations, a pen plotter for printing, and a 3D printer for the binding. The process was fraught with challenges: controlling AI art styles, vectorizing images, choosing the right pen for the plotter, selecting suitable paper, and mastering bookbinding techniques. Despite setbacks and a tight timeline (due to secrecy!), the result was a deeply personal and cherished gift. The project showcases a creative blend of technology and craftsmanship.
