Linocut registration pins

thingiverse

I've been lino-printing for quite some time and occasionally I start a multi-color project.\nRegistration has always been a major hassle, despite finding several methods and information about it.\nThe solution I found might be the best is Ternes Burton registration pins http://www.ternesburton.com/. This method is very simple (and of course Ternes Burton didn't invent that): registration is all about position and rotation, and two pins are enough to get these points spot on. But do I really need stainless steel? Definitely not.\nIn brief, this is the same principle but easy to DIY with a 3D printer.\nevery item must be printed in pairs, for each pair of "pin" you need several pairs of "foil", and each pair of "foils" is one print.\nI followed a tutorial to figure out what I really needed http://www.black-prints.com/how-to-get-the-perfect-registration-with-ternes-burton-pins/\nIt'll be much clearer than any explanation I might ever write =D \nsome prints (with and without it) on https://www.instagram.com/a_raush/\nPrint Settings\nPrinter: \n wanhao D4\n \n Rafts: \n No\n \n Supports: \n No\n \n Resolution: \n 0.3\n \n Infill: \n 1
