Hey Punks!
Exactly 8 years ago (to the minute) I claimed my first punk. In the years since we've seen a ton of incredible ways the community has shown up for the project and created public goods for the ecosystem and here's yet one more for y'all to nerd out on.
Excited to share a fun little tool for y'all I've been working on with @generativegoods and embroidery wizard @DaCaldera. Put your @cryptopunks punkID in the box and get professional quality DST (embroidery) files of your punk in a variety of sizes.
I see people wearing their punks all the time and after spending the last few years deeply studying machine embroidery understand how annoying and complex it can be to get a good digitized version of your punk.
A good digitization can cost $100 and that's for a single sized output.
The punk embroidery generator will give you a range of sizes in stitch-perfect outputs for any of the 10k punks plus for the DIY folks a cross-stitch pattern for you to make your own by hand (s/o to @flakoubay and @RachelSTWood who completed theirs of @NaughtalieStone's #98 recently 🙌).
We've put some instructions on the site to help you through the process, plus some embroidery machine recommendations in case you want to go all out and make them look at feel professional.
Note: GenGoods is not set up to do the embroidery for these (our system uses the same 15 colors across all our projects and Punks use way more colors across all the various outputs) but the downloads on the site give you exactly what you need to walk into any embroidery shop and have them make your punk for you. We suggest thread colors in the tool but that's just to get you started. A good embroidery shop will have tons to pick from so just pick the colors that best match your punk.
Anyways we thought it would be a fun way to celebrate the punks 8th anniversary with this fun little tool. Can't wait to see what y'all make with this.
Enjoy! 🍻

Beijing-affiliated Wen Wei Po was right there to have photos and video when Tang was arrested. In the video, Tang showed a very brief smile.
Tang is herself a veteran unionist who had been advocating for labour rights for four decades. She recently returned to HK, source said.
