By Debbie Smyth, I have been to see her work before when she was the feature artist and it is mind boggling how many nails and threads go into constructing one. The clean inner lines are great when compared to the squiggly outer edges, I love the loose threads that hang from each image.

Doctor 3D prints a model of a bone for surgery preparation
Doctor 3D prints a model of a bone for surgery preparation:
3D printing for a hospital on a limited budget.
Mark Frame, an orthopedic surgical trainee in Glasgow Scotland, made a 3D print of a patient’s forearm himself for a thousand dollars less than the hospital.
He used the data from a CT scan and open source software OsiriX (medical imaging) and MeshLab to produce a printable 3D model. He then uploaded that model to Shapeways. After he received the model, he checked it for accuracy and was happy to discover it was a near-perfect replica of the bone. He spent 77 pounds sterling (roughly $120) in total. I think we can safely call that a significant savings compared to $1200.

3D printing for a hospital on a limited budget.
Mark Frame, an orthopedic surgical trainee in Glasgow Scotland, made a 3D print of a patient’s forearm himself for a thousand dollars less than the hospital.
One day in surgery an opportunity arose, a patient needed a 3D model created of their fractured forearm to plan their surgery to realign it. This had already been done via a university department and the model produced was out of proportion and only a truncated portion due to cost issues. Even with this it was still north of $1200 for the small model. I then realized I could do better and for less and challenged my self to produce a model.

soft ground experiments
soft ground experiments: With time to spare in the workshop today I decided to try some experiments in soft ground etching. Soft ground has always been my favourite way to create etched images but as we are a 'non toxic' workshop the traditional method of melting wax onto the plate is out. I read that Graphic Chemical relief ink can be used as a ground; soft when it's wet and then also as a hard ground when it's dry, and thought it might be worth a try...
I tried various thicknesses of ink, applied with a roller, and various different tools to draw both through paper (which lifts off ground) and directly (which displaces it). I tried drawing on the plate as soon as it was coated, then at 10 minute intervals as the ink dried. Unlike my previous attempts with a different acrylic soft ground, this ink seems to dry quite slowly giving a large window of opportunity for drawing... top image drawn through paper after 5 mins, bottom drawn after 35 mins...
I also tried painting with various consistencies of the ink directly on the un-coated plate, and used water to dissolve parts creating the opposite effect...
I didn't get chance to etch the plates as the ink takes up to 24 hours to dry depending on thickness, but I can't wait to see what they all turn out like as it feels quite promising. Now I've just got to work out the etching times...
P.S. I like the little mono prints made with the removed ink too :)
