Abstract: A method of making high-quality wood prints without the use of ultraviolet printing or dye sublimation printing is described herein. The methods provide for the application of an image area comprising a printed image to a wooden substrate to produce wall hangings, ornaments, plaques and the like that include high-resolution printed graphics with wood grains and textures visible for creating the aesthetic of high-quality wood prints. The invention allows for the production of high-quality wood prints in retail photo processing installations from graphics provided by customers, for example, on computer-readable media capable of being printed using standard technologies such as ink jet or laser jet printing. The invention provides a lower-cost alternative for consumers to obtain customized, high-quality wood prints and provides retailers with kits of materials necessary to meet consumer demand for the products described herein.

Abstract: Described herein is an apparatus and method for manufacturing an image display. The apparatus provides an automated method for efficient production of a finished image display, beginning with a planar, unassembled, image display and resulting with a fully-assembled image display in its final form, such as a cube-shaped image display with a plurality of images affixed thereto. In one embodiment, the apparatus is machinery configured as a semi-automated workstation, configured with four jigs stationed on a rotating platform housed on a workstation base. The rotating platform is configured for 360 degree rotation and advancing each jig through one of four work positions. The rotating platform is controlled by a control panel, which can be operated manually or automated. In one embodiment, the machinery is capable of high through-put manufacturing—up to three hundred image display cubes in one hour of operation.
