Oops!
Linotype Linotype You've heard the term before, but now see the press!! The keyboard is crazy... and the machine is huge. It drops casts of characters into a mold when letters are pressed. Then, when all the characters for a line have been entered, hot metal is poured in create a cast for the whole line, then the letter casts are automatically returned to their respective hoppers until needed again. Pretty cool to see in action.
