I have alot of CD's that were sitting around, and yes marker gets the job done on labeling, but it just feels wrong. I mean these are OPERATING SYSTEMS, so they deserve a case like windows or a mac release (rip windows 10)
so i used my laser cutter and etched some card stock to make some custom cases,
i also enjoy shitposting on the back on some of the cases
if you want the SVG's get them at my codeburg https://codeberg.org/Steamymoosmilk/Unix_like_CD_cases/src/branch/main/
I feel like I miss them, but at the same I am afraid that we're over-romanticizing it as vintage pieces.
I tried having them with the pile of blank DVDs I got home, and it wasn't as fun as I remembered. I was hoping that it was due to some faulty hardware, but if that is indeed true, then that shows the unpracticality of this method with how error prone it is.
With that said, it still fills me with joy to know there are people like you who make art out of it. One day I will try again, perhaps with better DVD drive, or even better, one with bluray capability.
