Ich benötigte für einen neuen Schlüssel einen Anhänger mit eindeutiger Bezeichnung. Hier fand ich das Richtige!
Der Druck in Originalgröße (rechts im Bild) war mir dann doch etwas zu klein. Deshalb habe ich auf 125 % skaliert (links im Bild) - und bin zufrieden!
Gedruckt habe ich mit PLA in weiß/schwarz und Silk-blue; 1,5 mm Höhe ohne Unterstützung.
Je nach Haltbarkeit im Alltag werde ich weitere Exemplare drucken.
Schöne Sache - danke dafür!

@Xibalba_566432 That looks great. I like the ring and chain, too; where did you get them?

Would it be possible to create a more 'beefier' version of the horizontal hole head ? I use this to include a hook to my key tag during printing. I'm afraid the loop is now so thin it will wear through quickly. The hole for my purpose can be much smaller. (edited)

@raymondkoppen Let me take a look this weekend. I can probably reduce the taper on the sides, and move the hole closer to the center of the block; don’t want to increase the length of the block because that would make it harder place it on the grid (it’s currently the same length as the other pieces).

@dteng_185446 Thank you for making the effort. And I agree the block should not be bigger.

Thanks,

Raymond

@daanmol_1296572 I just added a star block to the symbols folder. Hope your sister likes it.

In the collors of the Irak flag, for my best friend Farah :-) thanks allot for sharing the design

Would be cool to generate symbols using font-awesome: https://fontawesome.com/

@mpsnp_1353704 Thank you for the suggestion; I need to look into that further. At first glance it appears that the Web site allows you to download individual .SVG files, which would be ease to incorporate into the 3D model for a variety of symbols.

These are absolutely fantastic! I love them. I made one with lion tail colors for my lion character!

@IonRoux That looks great! I’m glad you like the model.

Nice idea, and easy to arrange the letters you need.
