Cheers @Jonny69 , @JurekB

I am dyslexic @edmundro and so I used to spend so long writing in school and it was all bullshit so I figured it might as well be pretty.

I see letters as shapes rather than letters, means my misses has to spellcheck everything before I start, I have to send her photos from site and everything!

Now that’s interesting, I think breaking it down into shapes would make sense to me and how I would probably approach it as well actually(I work with glass/mirror) and tend to work well when I channel my ocd but don’t let it ruin riot(or I can end up losing my shit over 0.2mm inaccuracies.
My excuse for my handwriting was always being naturally left handed but going to a primary school were it was absolutely verboten 😬
Nowadays I write right handed but use tools/catch a ball etc left handed..

Would I know your work/Any photos of your stuff?

I give myself 0.6mm registration overlap when I screen print but often have to print lines that are 0.08mm and so that becomes the tolerable error.

Finest I have successfully gilded is ~0.1mm but the line struggles to really hold.
