#Manual Batch Printing Machine

[thehandwixard]

Hi! I really like your worldbuilding and was wondering if you had any ideas for how their equivalents of a printing press would be considering that Firth mentions getting the paper and I imagine they have some type of reading material like books or scrolls. 

Like if they use ink of some sort, the most obvious answer being from squids on some level or if they have a different form of manufacturing it as since squids are sapient here, they probably wouldn’t be too enthused about being mined for ink. Or it’s something like old thrown out paints, inks, and writing material from humans, though either way the question of how they would get certain materials to adhere underwater is questionable in itself. There are such things as waterproof paper and underwater writing utensils but I don’t imagine those would be common to come by nor do I think they would have that great of a ability really have much of the ability to manufacture them themselves on a large scale.

Or they just cut out the letters and symbols from stuff already printed by humans serial killer style, sort of like what the Bottom Feeders sign does

Hi, I wrote this one out in a doc to format it because i was thinking about so much information. This is going to be typed more formally than it would be otherwise because my program autocapitalizes lest i go insane. Its gonna be a little disjointed regardless. <3 giant wall of text under the cut im not subjecting anyones dash to this unprompted

As a preface: gonna assume paper, fabric, and other organic and/or delicate goods have a longer shelf life in this society, taking the same stance as for in-game props made of these materials. The cigarettes do not really dissolve and some paper can exist indefinitely, though it and cardboard are understood to be soggy. Whether this is due to sapient creature activity/preservation, or just due to the more cartoon logic of the setting and game design needs.

like this is just a good statement for my analysis and reads on this game's worldbuilding in general: there are a lot of things in crabgame that are not scientifically accurate and that is literally the most ok thing in the universe because of the needs of the gameplay, the story, just like ETC there is a lot of love for the real ocean in crabgame and thats what matters, and ill work around that. i, however, am also insane.

Also keep in mind that humans dont really do manufacturing and crafts underwater so while i’ve tried to keep water stuff in mind there is just not the info for how making oil based inks or individual batches of paper would work underwater yknow? Educated guesses. Wikipedia educated guesses.

Further assumption: Definitely agree with what u said about crabs not really having an ability to manufacture stuff on a large scale. I’m gonna assume factory work could definitely be a thing, but maybe not widespread like… industrialization. Industry is certainly a big and well-known thing in new-carcinia, and i don’t doubt that shellfish co. probably has some machine-powered factories, but most industry is probbbably going to be supplied through scavenging either way, even if it also includes craft and such. 

Third assumption: easy answer is that due to the trash economy yeah a lot of paints and inks used in theoretical printing, writing, and art would probably be, and have been scavenged from trash for a long time, probably superceding any of the previously implied small factories or home production joints. This isnt to say that these production methods could not be adopted for the trash economy though. Ill get into it. 

(clears throat) with all that said, through my basic research id have to say i think much manual writing and art, if made either through wholly original production or a mix of scavenging and refining, would be done through an equivalent to Grease Pencils, a wax writing tool which can make marks on hard and glossy surfaces, such as (relevant to crabs or other water critters) rock, ceramic, glass, metal, etc. there are many sources pigments for these writing implements could be derived from, like iron oxides (for use in reddish dyes), tyrian purple (there is actually a snail in the pacific that can be farmed for this dye without execution, Plicopurpura pansa iirc, who knew!) and carbon (ill return to this). 

You mention the ethical concerns of farming sapient squids for their ink and I do agree with those, no matter how much ink cephalopods produce its still like… a resource made from a person and production cant exactly rise to demand without the horrors occurring. However, i’m mostly just skeptical of how useful squid ink would be for writing underwater. This ink is almost entirely melanin particles bound together with mucus, which does eventually disperse in water. Not to say it couldnt be collected, but i feel like underwater application would be kind of a fruitless task. 

As an aside, with the general (really frightening (in a good way) to me) lack of molluscs we see in another crab’s treasure, tyrian purple or anything derived from molluscs would likely be largely out of the question. Some sea hares can also eject ink colored from the pigments they ingest from seaweed but also, this ink is toxic and… same mollusc problem. I guess people irl can eat sea hares so maybe with prep crabs could… who knows . Oh fuck pigments could be derived from seaweed and algae. Keep that in mind. 

I don’t… reject the possibility that crab society could have agricultural or dye farms but we only hear tell of like… One sardine farm and it is not sounding good for them. I don’t think these guys would really have any incentive to farm as little guys who can eat most things, one soldier in slacktide mentions scavenging heartkelp with their own claws. Probably some very small operations if any. 

ASIDE OVER THAT WAS JUST PIGMENTS MOSTLY, to me the tricky part is what IS the waxy part. The grease. The thing that does not dissolve in water. Again, these component parts can probably be scavenged (and probably Have been scavenged since even before the trash economy, canisters of wax definitely fall overboard whaling ships and such) but i honestly can’t think of many ways a crab could make such a substance wholecloth. Perhaps creation of a quasi-inkstick with agar-agar or animal glue (fish glue/isinglass) and pigment? Which would naturally be a bit wet and wouldnt need an inkstone to gather the substance onto the printing apparatus.

For the stuff crabs actually write or print on, assuming a form of this is possible underwater i think pressed homemade paper would be a perfectly reasonable option for small-scale applications, though honestly imo “the paper” (newspaper) that firth mentions is probably printed on either re-used scavenged coated paper or scavenged/manually flattened thin plastic sheets. With access to machinery, shellfish co. would likely be able to manufacture thin plastic sheets, the npc LaTuna mentions her dress being created somehow by Shellfish co. and so i dont doubt that type of simple production is possible. We also see a lot of writing on cardboard so im gonna assume scavenged paints or these like. Agar inks and paint stamps will work on those? Maybe with some kind of sealant…

And of course as u mention bottomfeeders and shellfish desires both have signs that are made out of english letters that were pre-made, so thats probably a good option when applicable.

Applications & Precautions of CNC Machining Acrylic(PMMA)

Acrylic (PMMA) is a highly desirable material due to its strength, toughness and transparency. However, it may not be practical to rely on conventional processing to cut acrylic as the material is very fragile and any excessive force can lead to unwanted breakage.

Nevertheless, CNC machining offers a reliable method of manufacturing acrylic parts safely, with high precision and minimal waste of trim. CNC machining produces very few errors, allowing the manufacture of high quality acrylic parts and prototypes such as headlamps, housings, jewellery and more.

Advantages of Acrylic CNC Machining

As a CNC machined plastic, acrylic has many inherent advantages. Excellent transparency comparable to glass, Lighter weight than glass, Excellent dimensional stability, Good tensile and flexural strength, Good insulation level, Anti-wear, Anti-UV & sunlight, Good biocompatibility, Relatively low cost, Can be solvent bonded, Easy to polish, Available in a wide range of colours, Recyclable.

Choosing CNC machined acrylic over molding or 3D printing can bring additional benefits, some of the main advantages of machined acrylic include:

1.Material compatibility Acrylic is a thermoplastic that is malleable when heated, making it ideal for CNC machining. This inherent property makes it easy to fabricate and shape acrylic using this precise and efficient process.

2.Manufacture of High-Precision parts CNC machines offer extremely high cutting accuracy with tolerances down to thousandths of an inch. This level of high accuracy is particularly important when working with materials such as acrylic, where the need for neat edges and dimensional accuracy is critical.

3.Increasing productivity CNC machining is one of the most efficient ways to manufacture acrylic materials, especially when producing small batches of acrylic parts. The process allows for faster production speeds compared to manual methods, resulting in increased efficiency and productivity in acrylic manufacturing.

4.Reducing waste Thanks to its precise manufacturing method, the CNC machining is able to cut acrylics with optimum force, avoiding irreversible damage. This enables fast and efficient production of acrylic components with precise shapes and sizes. Using CNC machining increases accuracy and minimises waste in the manufacturing process.

5.Achieve high repeatability The automated CNC process ensures consistency across multiple parts or batches, thus ensuring consistent reproduction accuracy for each part. This reliability is a key benefit of CNC machining, especially in maintaining uniformity and accuracy in the production of acrylic parts.

6.Saving on manufacturing costs CNC machining can provide significant manufacturing cost savings due to reduced material waste, increased efficiency and lower labour costs. The precision and automation of CNC helps to achieve a leaner, more cost-effective production process.

Applications of Acrylic CNC Machining

CNC machined acrylic has many industrial uses, with the material being most widely used in the optical and automotive industries.

Alternatives to Glass

Due to its excellent transparency and clarity, acrylic is used as a replacement for shatterproof glass in many industries, including automotive, aerospace and optical.

Acrylic is commonly used as a glass replacement for window structures in aquariums, submarines, and hockey arenas. It is also used in the manufacture of lighting components such as headlights in the automotive industry. However, lights used in optical and automotive applications often have complex shapes and may also require very tight tolerances to provide optimal performance.

Medical and Dental

Due to its good biocompatibility, acrylic can be used in a variety of medical applications, including cosmetic surgery, where it can be used as a dermal filler. Acrylic can also be used as a bone cement in orthopaedic surgery (often used in fracture repair, joint replacement surgery or in vertebroplasty to fix the vertebrae, stabilize the spine and alleviate pain), as well as in dentistry for a variety of purposes (e.g. dentures).

Consumer goods

The aesthetics of acrylic make it suitable for a wide range of consumer products from furniture to consumer electronics to musical instruments.

Precautions When Machining Acrylic

Acrylic is a useful and versatile material, but it usually fails when subjected to compressive and tensile forces. This means that machining the desired shapes and cavities into acrylic panels requires care and attention.

However, the digital precision of CNC machining greatly simplifies this task. It also greatly increases the speed of acrylic machining and allows input parameters to be programmed to meet a wide range of needs.

Workpiece clamping

Plastics and metals have different workpiece clamping requirements, and acrylic is no exception in this regard. All areas of the material must be clamped using jigs and vises (smaller parts) or using adhesives to secure the entire part to the table (larger parts). If budget allows, a vacuum table is best suited for acrylic machining because it can effectively clamp and unclamp the material without damaging it.

Machining

CNC machining of acrylic typically requires a steady feed rate. Feed rates that are too low can lead to heat build-up and chips sticking back to the part, which can greatly reduce the quality of the surface finish. Another way to prevent heat build-up is to pre-cool the acrylic material before machining begins to allow for better chip removal. During machining, it is best to use oil-free coolants as they do not react with the plastic.

Surface finishing

For an aesthetically pleasing product, acrylic needs to be polished after CNC machining to produce optimum clarity and light transmission in the part. This is usually done by using progressively finer grit sandpaper followed by hand polishing with a linen towel and polishing paste. For high-quality prototypes, such as automotive headlight lenses or taillight lenses, or windows for electronics, polishing must be done by hand, a job done by the most experienced and skilled employees.

To create a diffusion effect on acrylic parts, the surface can be sandblasted and textured, while milky white paint offers another aesthetic option. Or to colour the part while maintaining transparency, it can be painted and coloured after hand polishing.

Conclusion

Acrylic is widely used for its strength, toughness and transparency, and CNC machining provides a reliable method for manufacturing high-quality acrylic parts. Acrylic machining has a variety of industrial applications, such as optical, automotive, and medical, but requires care and attention to post-processing such as clamping and polishing. Benefits include good material compatibility, manufacturing high precision parts, increasing productivity, reducing waste, achieving high repeatability and saving manufacturing costs.
