This is a simple placard intended to limit the number of times my doorbell rings unnecessarily.

In recent months, I've been bothered far more by sales people than I care to even count.  I don't want a free roof or window inspection.  I don't need another pest control company or lawn service.  I simply don't want to be bothered.

I made this little 10cm X 10cm sign to place above the ringer for my doorbell.  I attached it to the wall above my doorbell ringer with double sided tape.  It's only been up for a few hours, but all has been quiet.  Since literacy is a real problem in this country, I don't expect the sign to be foolproof.  I hope that it will at least cut down the number of incursions...

I sliced the text and placard of the two piece version in Flashstudio and printed it on my Creator 5 Pro in black and green PETG.

I included a second version that will look nearly identical, but instead of using inlaid text, it's a one piece print with raised text that can either be paused for a filament swap on single filament machines, or printed in a light color so that a sharpie can be used to blacken the text.

If only my wife had approved the first version of the placard I designed which mentions we're running out of space to hide all the sales peoples bodies...

UPDATE 09252026:  I printed the raised text version of this model so I could run a sharpie over it and add a photo, and while I was running the sharpie over the printed text, I became horrified when I noticed I spelled "interested" with two R's...  Yes, after commenting on literacy being a problem...  Both placards had the same problem since I used the same vector graphic for the text on both version...  Oops!  :)  I corrected both versions and posted the corrected models.  The photos reflect the corrected versions.  My apologies for the goof...
