I write things on the internet for fun. Sometimes fiction, sometimes scripting, something silly stuff. Also, I take photos, poke at random maker projects, and sometimes do my job @ Cocoa Press

Properly photographing a 3.5" floppy disk for archival is annoyingly complicated. The label has THREE sides!

I've already built an automated system to take a picture of the front of a disk, but really I need to take THREE photos if I want to get the whole thing.

That means either three cameras or I need to rotate the disk 90° and then 180°, which is going to really stress the limits of my mechanical engineering skills.

@foone May I share unsolicited printer advice? It looks in this photo as though the nozzle is partially clogged and is causing extrusion issues. You may get better results / less fragile prints if you get a needle or nozzle unclogger folks sell.

@foone As long as you know how / know it's an issue. Good luck with your floppy label digitization project.
