Description
Hi folks,
this is a not (yet) complete collection of fire symbols according to ISO 7010. These are by far not all symbols, but the most common ones and the ones I could easily access trough Wikimedia (link below). If you miss a sign and also have a good source for the symbol (preferably .svg or a high resolution .png) please contact me. We can add more symbols over time and complete this collection. Printed in PLA they are cheap, durable, reusable and chemically resistant.
Fee free to leave me feedback and suggestions and let me see your prints, I'm curious. Also I won't print all of the signs myself, because I don't want to waste material only for a photo or two. But it would be nice if you share your experience. I've printed F001 as a Demonstrator. The color is almost excatly as it should be (my PLA is RAL 3002 compared to the suggested RAL 3001).

File structure:
There are a lot of files, I know, but it's systematic, every sign has 5 files:
...170mm.svg - a vectorgraphic file scaled to 170 mm (inkscape) Print:
The print time is usually 2.5 hours. The signs are meant to be printed in 0.2 mm layerheight. Therefore the red base is 3 layers (0.6 mm) and the white symbols another 3 layer (0.6mm). The square is always scaled to 170 x 170 mm. The colorchanges are alreday added in the .3mf files.
Material:
Please use PETG or other UV resistant materials if you want to use the signs outdoors. For indoor purposes PLA is fair enough. The cost for each print is < 1€ for regular PLA. The colors should be choosen in a way so they are as close to the RAL colors of the ISO 3684 standard (link below, or image above). Some filament producers release the RAL color in the specs of their materials. I am using "Das-Filament" a lot. Some of their PLA comes really close to the RAL colors suggest for the safety symbols. Take care when choosing the colors.
Design:
I took the .svg files from Wikimedia (link below) scaled them to 170 mm using inkscape (link below). The rescaled version is then loaded to Fusion360, where the base profile is extruded in negative direction -0.6 mm and the white parts inlcuding the frame are extruded to the positive direction +0.6 mm. Lastly I added colors to the faces of the sign bodies, every sign is one body.
