Braille Writing Slate 27 Lines × 30 Cells with Stylus

I work with disabled teenage orphans in China. One of my students was blind, but had never been taught braille (Chinese or English), so I purchased some braille items in the States to take back and start teaching her. This was one of them. The staff at her foster home eventually (after a lot of coaxing) began working with her and teaching her Chinese braille. They loved this stylus. They apparently tried to find some other styluses afterwards, as they wanted more than one, but couldn't find anything that worked nearly as well on the internet in China. They wound up asking me to buy another in the States.

I bought this slate to be able to communicate with several of my blind friends. The slate has worked amazing, and has been relatively easy to use. The only difficult part is that you have to write each letter backward form left to write so that they can read it on the other side.

The only thing to remember with this guy is that you're punching the divots backwards. That can be easy to mess up on at first, but once you've gotten used to it, you can write like a pro. Just remember to get the thicker paper. Regular printer paper gets torn to bits. So yeah, it is what it says it is and works like it's supposed to.

I still don’t under stand what the edging braille letters mean. Some of the dot punches did not form firmly so I had to go back over them afterwards. But I made a cheat sheet for myself so I know how to punch the letters to make notes for my friend. Over all it’s nice to be able to write a big letter and sentences rather then small words, where you have to move your page every time for the next word to fit in the grid.

My wife is a Braille reader and loves to write in Braille. This is a big one for one big sheet of paper. She puts in a big sheet and keeps it by her chair. It is handy to take notes, shopping lists and phone numbers.

This slate is however made for A4 size Braille paper, which is not a problem because this size paper can be easily purchased online from braillepaper.com/product-tag/a4-braille-paper/. The fact that each slate comes with one green and one red stylus is a plus, the colors do not matter, but having two of them come with the slate is convenient. I am a sighted student of Braille, so the stylus and slate is a convenient way to Braille a letter to blind friends.

Love this. It is very well made and came with two punches. Only downside to writing braille without a braille typewriter is that you need to write on this knowing that it should be written backwards because the dots will be read with the punches upward.
