Description
This is my second contribution to Makerworld. My first contribution is v1 of this keychain (see https://makerworld.com/de/models/899388 ). I wasn't satisfied with the general look of v1 because the font didn't really resemble the original, so I created this version, which comes much closer to the original MS-DOS font.
Since you need five colours to print everything, I separated the base and letters into two plates. After printing, push the individual pieces into the base and it should be a press fit (you might need a lot of force but it fits perfectly), though to ensure that nothing gets loose after a while, use a bit of superglue. Also, I didn't have purple filament at hand for the middle “O” so I substituted it with blue. To get the authentic look you should use purple.
I've uploaded two print profiles. One which prints every letter and the base seperately, which prints by object and greatly reduces printer-poop (takes only ~45 minutes). The other one prints by layer, creates a LOT of printer-poop and takes about 2 hours to finish. The final print with both profiles is almost indistinguishable, although I prefer the separated one myself because you get a clear separation of pieces.
Let me know in the comments if you have problems or any suggestions.
