Post-Printing =============

Glue round rubber or foam sheets (optional)

You may want to glue 3 round 10 mm (0.4 inches) rubber or foam sheets with 2.5 mm thickness to the bottom holes of coin A and B. This will make the coaster sit on the table in a stable way.

How I Designed This ===================

Coin design

The coin was designed with Blender. I have designed the flat base coin first. Using a reference photo I have extruded points to match the text and ornaments on the top surface.

Coin C during the print =======================

When the print is finished let the build plate cool down. Do not force the two coins of type B and C to come off, as they are not very thick. You may want to use isopropyl around the corners, if the coins stick too much. Glue the two parts together with a glue appropriate for the material you are using.
