A friend asked me to print some name plates for his apartment building's mailboxes. I'm writing these instructions for myself, in case I need to print more later. You can use this model to make different sized signs with text – just modify the parameters. I have provided three examples.

 

Customize

You can customize these plates to any size, text &/or font:

  1. download the openscad file

  2. modify the parameters

  3. render a new design

  4. export the STL

 

Print

I used the following settings in PrusaSlicer.

  • Print settings: 0.20mm STRUCTURAL

  • Nozzle: HF0.4 nozzle

  • Infill: 100%

Layers and perimeters:

  • Layer height: 0.2mm

  • First layer: 0.2mm

  • Solid layers: 3 top and bottom

  • Minimum shell thickness: 0.6mm top and bottom

Infill:

  • Fill density: 100%

  • Fill pattern: Rectilinear

  • Top fill pattern: Monotonic lines

Add a color change at the depth of the text.
