Man, I have been jonesing to screenprint again lately. I have a one color printer I built about 10 years ago that I am going to be getting back from some cats I borrowed it to. I am going to try printing on wood. Anyone have any cool projects they did?

i always wanted to print on my iBook, but never got around doing it, but try out some wood veneer, that sounds pretty fun

i once tried to put a wooden veneer through a photocopier at uni.
needless to say it didn't work.
made a horrible crunching sound. But thats all i heard as i quickly legged it down the corridor.:)

there is a guy here in iceland printing skulls on everything he can get his hands on...
not much on the site, but his print on jackets like Kirk Hammett is wearing is so god damn cool...they usally have a big photostyle print on the back..

no shit _me_ , i tried that in school too, the stupid xerox said it could eat everything up to 200grams paper and the veneer was about the same as 185g, it did go thru the machine, but it had to be repaired after...
i also did a Carl Lewis after it came out
