NO KINGS Pins Collection

You know what the No Kings means. Make and share the NO KINGS pins from the collection far and wide with friends, family, strangers. I've given away several hundred in just two weeks. Remember: use them! The pins may look nice but only work if you wear them and get the message out. So, wear them and share them!

Check back often. I'm a designer and far from done. More designs will be added to the collection regularly.

BONUS. Special NoT pins and magnets are included. Get it? No "T"

Notes: 

These are three color buttons

For No Kings I suggest white, gold and red for BASE, CROWN, NO. Or flip the colors and use Red-BASE, Gold-CROWN, Black-NO. For the special Cheeto King Edition pin with some added zing, use Cheeto Orange for the CROWN.

For NoT I use corn blue as BASE with white NO and red T. Alternatively Gray BASE with Soft Yellow and Cheeto Orange.

MAGNETIC

Some models are MAGNET versions. Sized for 8 mm x 3 mm magnets. Put a tiny drop of CA glue on the bottom of the mag slot before you press the magnet in.

Why Magnetic? Well, these magnetic buttons aren't meant to live on your fridge. They are meant to be left anonymously in public spaces for other people to discover them and hopefully think about the message they carry. Look around. There are a lot of magnetic surfaces in public places to leave them. 

PRINTING

These are three color prints. Whether Prusa, Bambu or whatever multi-color printer just drag or copy the BASE, CROWN, NO files for each model at the same time. Assign a color to each color and print away. Being multi-color be efficient by printing a lot at a time. As with previous pins, I give a lot away and usually print 2-3 dozen at a time.

3MF files ADDED 6/26/25

BTW: Many of these models can be printed on one color printers. Just drag or copy all three files: BASE, CROWN, NO into your slicer. Setup a color change at each level. BASE layer is from 0 to 3 mm high. After that print 2 mm for the crown, 1 mm for NO. That means filament changes at 3 mm, 5mm.

For better details consider using .15 or .16 layer height. I've made and given away over fifteen thousand small JOYS and all kinds of buttons and these methods consistently work well for me on Prusa, Bambu and many other printers. Slow the print down for first layer, slow outsides and even slower for smooth top surfaces to get best quality and details. Objects this small are relatively tall in height have lots of mass and tend to want to break free, So, don't let them. For projects like this I always use smooth build plates and glue or other build surface prep product. It works!

PINS

I use 20mm pin backs purchased on Amazon. The kind with the little hook clasp. You can buy 100 for $5.

Note the TAB and slot on the back of each pin. This is to help hold the pins and provides additional glue surface. It really secures the pin. I use this method this with all my pin designs. I use thick CA glue. Epoxy works as an alternative. I put a nice little dab of CA down in front of the TAB and slide the pin back under the tab. This way glue gets dragged on both sides of the pin back and really secures it. There's a 1 mm gap between the TAB and slot for the pin back. If the pin back is hard to push under the tab, use a small flat screwdriver as a pusher on the edge or the hole on the pin back.
