Vinyl groove QR code generator

Each dot is cut into a sharp wedge, like light slicing across the grooves of a record, and the round corner eyes look like labels at the middle of a disc. A black border around the code finishes the record-sleeve look, with a music-shop feel that suits anything with a soundtrack.

Printing tip

The wedges have sharp points, so use the SVG for print and keep the code at 3 cm (1.2 in) or larger.

Static code: it never expires, but the link can't change after printing. Need edits or scan counts? Make a dynamic code.
