I made a few Hex Buttons for my EDC cuff link / card set - so I thought I'd share a few size options of buttons only, if anyone's interested.

Here I have the following sizes:

  • 10mm / 16L (Ligne)
  • 11.5mm / 18L
  • 12.5mm / 20L
  • 14mm / 22L
  • 16mm / 26L
  • 18mm / 28L
  • 20mm / 32L
  • 24mm / 38L
  • The named dimension is on the side-to-side width, not the distance corner-to-corner

    I've included the 3mf file for the 12.5mm, which seemed the common size on most of my shirts, and the gcode for the same print.

    Print instructions

    Slicer Settings

    • Sliced using Prusa Slicer 2.3.0 Alpla-3
    • Using the default 0.15mm QUALITY mode
    • 15% infill
    • 3mm Brim to improve adhesion
    • And using "monotonic" infill for the top layer

    Filament

    • Printed as part of my Hex Cufflink Card, using Prusament PLA Galaxy Black, and alternating the colour for a white inlay.

    Colour Inlay

    • Add a Filament Change using Prusa Slicer at 2.0mm (Layer 13) and 2.30mm (layer 15) for a nice coloured inlay / outer edge.

    • Or, simply swap colours at 2.3mm (Layer 15) for a simpler effect.

    • The 16mm buttons and upwards are slightly deeper, so please check the layers before printing

    Enjoy :)
