Description
Here is a customizable intersecting text model that lets you create cool optical illusions. You can generate two different words that show up depending on the angle you view the print from. The included file is fully parametric so you can easily swap in your own names or phrases and adjust the fonts directly in MakerWorld. It works perfectly for creating personalized desk toys, custom nameplates, or unique gifts for friends and family without needing advanced CAD skills.
Getting clean geometry on these dual word blocks relies on dialing in your bridging and avoiding messy overhangs. The script handles the complex boolean intersections automatically so all you have to do is type your two words and export the file. Since the letters intersect at ninety degrees, you will want to make sure your bed adhesion is solid, especially if you choose a delicate font style with minimal surface area touching the build plate.
Note: Please double check support areas before printing, sometimes support becomes very hard to remove without damanging the text block because it's hard to reach.
