alt Hacker NewsYour description reminds me of a blind guy I know who is interested in architecture, and began to collect scale models of famous building so he could feel them and experience their architecture. Eventually he took an interest in buildings that were less famous or didn't have high quality models, and started commissioning an artist to model them in CAD and 3D print them. Now he has a business producing and selling these tactics models.

This is super cool. Apparently he also creates tactile topographical maps with various landmarks, terrain, etc.

I'm not at all confident in my ability to take an unknown object, run my hands over it, manipulate it, and even get close to being able to describing / recreating it though it does sound like this has the makings of a fun Cranium board mini-game.
Oh no.
I'm a blind guy. I have a distinct interest in starships -- I have every Eaglemoss model, and many many more.
If I click this link I am totally going to get sucked into having people design and print me starships -- I need another project like I need another hole in my head.
