Description
This is a full size prop of the “Outatime” license plate from the movie Back To The Future.
Its size is 12" x 6" (304,8 x 152,4 mm). Because of this large size it can only be printed on a printer with a printbed that is minimum 305mm. I added a second print profile with a smaller version (10" x 5" / 253,2 x 126,6 mm) to be printed on smaller printers. You can of course scale the model to your own needs.
I designed this prop according to the offiicial dimensions for Californian license plates. The letters and some details of the plate are embossed to give it a realistic look.
Print preparation:
Make sure that your print bed is clean and grease-free and use a quality brand, dry filament. This is a multimaterial print (four colours) and you need a MMU or AMS for it.
Print settings:
Use the 0.2mm standard settings. At a height of 1.2mm change the layer height to 0.1mm for smoother details. See my print profiles for more details.
