Braille + Makerhack = something really great

From what I understand, typing Braille is a sought after high paying side gig for a bunch of people. This is really amazing. I have a real softspot in the maker-disability-into-ability movement.

Unrelated side note- I lost an ebay bid on a lot of Braille playboys years ago. I thought they would be a perfectly fun thing to have around the house.

“Braille playboys”

Braille could be easily etched out with the lasers.

Either way it was a treasure.

There are no pictures in the Braille version of Playboy, it’s the stories, articles, bios, and the captions of the photos that remain.

I wouldn’t be surprised there’s an app for that :wink:
