10/18/2023 Map Stopped Working?
Visit this post for the fix
Has anyone used canvas as a map? I’m trying to think of any pros/cons.
The bigger concern would be if the holes for the led’s would start to rip and cause other issues.
Ive got the idea to have a canvas printed with a deep edge (1.5”). Through a back behind it for support and it would turn out nice.
That's an interesting idea. I've never considered it. I wonder if you could get away with not cutting holes, and just let the light shine through the canvas? - Mark
That is interesting. Before I went the route of direct printing on MDO, I was playing with vinyl and other print mediums, attached to a substrate. The trick to getting clean holes was to use a leather punch first on the print, then drill the substrate. It was very important to have a it very evenly glued, though, as if there was any lack of adhesion where drilling, you'd end up with material under the print that was impossible to get out. I was playing with wood and plexi substrates, but both had the same issue.
