With just a simple click of a button, the CONSTI2GO by artist Thibault Brevet rattles off the US Constitution, in receipt-like form.
The artist did have some trouble converting an aged receipt printer into a very one-trick pony. Specific coding had to be done, and the storage space and memory on the device was not what many are used to when using modern computers. The speed at which the paper comes out, however, is not slow. In about three seconds, the receipt printer spits out the US Constitution, complete with the statement "We the People" at the top.
For any die-hard patriots out there, this could be a great addition to the house for everyday inspiration.
