Use this models to make a debossing in your models to show what type of plastic it is, making recycling and sorting easier when a print is at the end of its life.
The models can be made larger, but making the debossing smaller may result in unreadability, which counters the reason why it was added
STEPS:
- Step 1: Load the correct recycling marker in and make sure that it is mirrored when looking down on the print bed (Image 3)
- Step 2: Merge the marker with the object that you want to give the debossing (Image 4)
- Step 3: Place the marker where you want to deboss the main part (Image 5)
- Step 4: Use the “Mesh boolean” tool in Bambu Studio or similar tools in different slicers. (Image 6)
- “Subtract from” should be the main part
- “Subtract with” should be the recycling marker
- Step 5: Now you have a debossed print part ready for slicing (Image 7)
If there any issues, I am open to feedback and if you would like to see any other materials added mention it in a comment!
