Description

A tiny sign, a useful thing,
These 3D prints, convenience they bring!
Flat from the printer, filament light,
Just fold the flaps and they stand upright.

 

A name card, a label, your choice to make,
Select the size, for goodness' sake!
In the slicer's realm, the text you'll place,
A perfect fit, with ample space.

 

Don't make it tiny, keep it bold and clear,
Check the preview, conquer all fear.
A filament swap, for colors bright,
Personalize your signs with all your might!

 

So print these labels, a handy set,
A clever solution, you won't regret!

 

This label prints quickly and needs only a few grams of filament (~10 minutes and ~5g, depending on size and printer). With PLA it can be folded and unfolded a couple of times, but will break eventually; other filaments will be more durable.

Printing: 

  • Choose a suitable size
  • Add embossed text in your slicer
  • Recomended text settings (0.4mm nozzle):
    • depth: 0.4mm
    • font height: ≥6mm
    • bold sans-serif font for small text sizes
  • with AMS: change the text's color
  • without AMS: add a manual color change
  • check preview
  • tested with 0.4mm nozzle, 0.2mm layer height, standard settings
  • fold back and clip the small flap into the notch (see images)
