Wayne, you should also post this in the model building groups. A
smart modeler might see just how useful this could be for model
building. G

Printers in the "good old days" of letterpress with etched cuts and photos.
These cuts were etched into metal then mounted on a wood base. They would
have to be cut to final size and accurately cut square so that they could be
all clamped up with the metal type in the press.

Now it is all replaced by lithography, with plates burnt on the press with
lasers, or high speed toner based copiers.
