For people who want labels for homemade bottled products, and who don’t want to make or buy a plotter, milk labels are pretty great. You print on plain paper (important: with a laser printer), cut to shape, dip in a shallow pan of milk, apply the paper to the bottle and ease out any wrinkles, then press gently on it with a paper towel.
When it dries, it stays on really well (unless it gets wet), and it comes off super easily for reusing the bottle (just get it wet).
Edit: I'm no artist, but chatgpt is good enough for generating images for a couple labels for bottles to bring to a friend's house: https://snap.philsnow.io/2024-04-23T21-51-59.om16cg7cwmuo244... and https://snap.philsnow.io/2024-04-23T21-51-23.4w510xksghqiamx...
It's probably only obvious after you done the other versions first. I know because I feel the same way about most of my projects. After enough of those things you get closer to a final in fewer iterations, but never have I done it on the first try for anything meant to last longer than the first use
This is a super neat and cool project, but someone who knows a bit about CNC control - as the author surely does - will have sources of inspiration to draw upon, and won't have to solve every problem from scratch.
Damn, the dialing-in process was... energetic.
Such capability is pretty common in the CNC world to account for the flatness (or lack thereof) of a work piece.
