Description:
This is based on a type design I was playing around with when I was in college in 1975. The original was drawn on graph paper. It had certain rules of construction, such as not using angles that tilted the other direction, making some kinds of forms practically impossible.

The ‘T’ is too narrow, I believe. The ‘B’ might look better if cut like the ‘P’ rather than ‘R’.

Good point about the T. I changed it. I'm going to leave the B alone, though. I like it.
