Customisable QR Code Stand (AMS & No-AMS Versions)

 

Customisable QR Code Stand – Slide-In QR Plate (AMS & No-AMS Versions)

This is a clean, modern QR Code Display Stand perfect for shops,  craft events, cafés, libraries, markets, or anyone needing a professional, durable way to show a scannable code.

The design features a top-loading, removable QR plate, meaning you only need to reprint the plate when your link changes — the stand stays the same.

Both AMS and Non-AMS versions are included.

🧩 How to Generate Your Own QR Plate (QR2STL Instructions)

To create your custom QR plate, follow these steps:

1. Visit: QR2STL (linked in the photos section)   https://qrcode2stl.printer.tools
2. Enter your link, social page, payment link, menu, Wi-Fi login — anything you want.
3. (Optional) Upload a custom SVG icon to appear in the centre of your QR code.
4. Set the plate size to:
   • Width: 69.5 mm
   • Height: 65.9 mm
   • Thickness: 2 mm

5. Export your STL.   

    

      

    

    

   You can now colour it in two different ways:

6. 🎨 Method 1 — Colour it Using the Paint Tool (Bambu Studio)

7. This is how I prepared the examples:
8. Import the STL into Bambu Studio
9. Assign the plate the colour you want for the QR lines (e.g., black)
10. Open the Paint tool → choose Fill
11. Enable Connected same colours
12. Select the background colour (e.g., white)
13. Click the base area →
    This automatically splits the model into two colours
    1. White background
    2. Black QR pattern
14. Slice & print
    1. AMS: automatic
    2. No-AMS: manual swaps also work 

 

 

 

 

🎨 Method 2 — Manual Layer Swap (No AMS Required)

1. Import the STL
2. Make the whole plate your background colour (white)
3. Slice the model
4. On the right-hand preview slider, find the layer where the QR lines begin
5. Add a Filament Change or Pause at that layer
6. Resume printing with the darker colour (black)

This produces a perfectly crisp two-colour QR code without using an AMS.

 

 

 

 

 

📐 Fitment

The QR plate slides in from the top and locks in place.
If needed, scale the thickness slightly (±1–2%) in your slicer for a perfect friction fit.
