Overview
The 3D printed Braille Slate and Stylus Set makes embossing Braille easy — no expensive embosser required!
The set comes in two sizes: a large set with 4 rows of 30 cells, and a small set with 2 rows of 30 cells.
How To Use
Sandwich a piece of paper between the bottom and top half of the slate. Using the pointed end of the stylus, gently emboss each cell in a circular motion, ensuring not to puncture the paper. Emboss the braille in reverse so the raised bumps are right side up.

This device is intended for people with low vision or who are blind, and are Braille readers. Teachers and parents of young readers may also find this tool helpful in educational settings.
