I am interested in areas and shapes, but it occured to me to look into lines.
specifically, unit lines that are not orthagonal. I used lengths of thread cut
to certain dimensions to lay out a path on the plates, then used my saw to cut
that path in the metal. The resultant line is embossed up through the ink.
