I wanted a simple normal sized desk nameplate for my shared work studio. I started with one design, then just got carried away… So there's lots to choose from, everything prints in place, and can be made in under one hour (depending on what you print and with what settings).
The holders print on their side with no supports, while the plates & MST3K add-ons print face up (settings below). Multiple nameplates are included, with a blank plate so you can make your own! **IMPORTANT: Let the plates and/or MST3K Add-ons properly cool after printing!**
If you plan to use the MST3K holder and add-on, then I suggest to print the MST3K Offset titles. Or if you're making your own, offset the title by at least 3mm above center line.
You could try thinning out the nameplate to use even less filament, just remember to properly cool after printing.
**UPDATE - Mar 3, 2025** Added 2 versions of nameplates for elementary teachers! Kindergarten to Grade Six. Plus blank versions of the nameplates so you can personalize it.
**UPDATE - Mar 4, 2025** Added the Tri-Holder. Now you can have up to 3 nameplates at the same time!

How I printed this:
Printed in PLA with 0.4mm nozzle.
Nameplate Holder - Layer Height: 0.3mm, 40% Infill, Hilbert Curve Top Surface Pattern.
Nameplate - Layer Height: 0.2mm, 15% Infill, Hilbert Curve Top Surface Pattern. Paused printing at LAYER 8 [Height 1.60] for colour change.
MST3K Add-On: Layer Height: 0.2mm, Hilbert Curve Top Surface Pattern.
