Thanks! When I read the thread I looked at my foiling machine and knew I had a responsibility to the world so I took my shot.
Edit: I am not sure what it means but this post has been certified as satisfying. I will definitely flex that. Also, thanks to all those who have extended my Reddit Premium subscription to expire in October 2032.
Special thanks to the internet for validating that despite my best efforts and hours put into my art and all my art related posts, this low effort content is what people really appreciate

NFTs aren't even JPGs, you can copy a JPG just fine. NFTs are the more obvious "Greater fool scam" scam compared to their cousin cryptocurrency.

On the news today it said they've unearthed a sarcophagus in Egypt filled with chocolate and nuts
The mummy was wrapped in gold foil, so they believe it is the legendary Pharaoh Rocher
Edit
Thanks for the gold foil

I’m on a bit of a Stargate binge at the moment so the moment I saw ‘sarcophagus’ I was thinking that it was going to reference the Goa’uld.

I would spend an absurd amount of money on that. How much?

u/tfoust10 Jan 27 '22
Lol. Well, I listed it starting at 24k mainly because that is an absurd price and 24k being a reference to gold. Obviously nobody is going to go that far but the 24k valuation was intended for comedic purposes (but I won't stop you)

u/ILM_surf Jan 27 '22
I will pay you $3,000 for one of those.

u/tfoust10 Jan 27 '22
If you paid me $3,000 for one of these I would 100% cover shipping and a frame. I would probably also include a gold foil of the transaction for you and for me and I would proudly display it in my home

u/mustbetheruffles Jan 27 '22
This is not real gold foil. It’s called foil stamping or sleeking. You print something in black ink and lay the colored foil ontop. The heater in the machine melts the toner/ink while providing pressure and the foil adheres to it. Much more mainstream than people seem to realize.

Ah, I used to do that with this photo gift business I worked at. You gotta use a laser printer. Used to print photos and then print a laser overlay over it for details. Could make peoples jewelry sparkle in pictures. Say its a car picture... make all the chrome on the car with a photoshop overlay and use silver foil. It was a cool effect once done. Foil was pretty cheap too. I wanna get back into that crafty stuff. It was fun being creative. Anyway, this was great good job

u/SharkAttackOmNom Jan 26 '22
This is awesome. For a moment I was using my 3D printer as a pen plotter. I could use any pilot G2 ink cartridge. So I made a bunch of birthday cards using various metallic inks. Was pretty cool being able to make something that a printer literally couldn’t.
Your old work definitely kicks it up a notch.

u/Aphrodiziac Jan 27 '22
Did you just print a holder for the pen and set the correct offset? That sounds super cool. I’m going to look into this even if just for personal cards and stuff

I do this for a living but instead on a much larger scale and this guy really did go out his way. The most tedious part have to be making or ordering a plate for the impression he had to use for the cold foil transfer.
