Maker Tools Clothes Buttons

Intro

I'm a designer and maker and I love to customize my tools and my clothes.
I was inspired a lot by Adam Savage's Tested (de)Merit Badges (which are great to customize things) and designed these Maker Buttons to use on your hoodie, shirt, or different bags.

These buttons are useful and have aesthetic use. You can repair your clothes or use them like badges, you choose!

 

Design

It's a simple circular button with a diameter of Ø20mm and a height of around 2 mm.
Two Ø1.5mm holes for the thread.

 

Print Settings

I always use PrusaSlicer settings as a start point and tweak some parameters based on the filament I use or characteristics I need from the final print. 

For this one, I used 0.2mm default settings ( I suggest you use 0.2mm as well for perfect color change if you doing manual color-changing), and the new Prusa Slicer 2.4 automatic color set option.

The estimated time for one button is around 5-10 minutes.

No need for support on this print.
