3D Tag

thingiverse

A fun educational handout for children at my son's school, this print-out helps explain 3D printing. The kids love hanging them on their backpacks! By changing colors at approximately 33% and 80% completion, the numbers, background, and letter/border contrast beautifully. The thin "3" is translucent when held up to light. My son ran the printer for this batch, favoring red and yellow. To prevent lifting, the tag is modeled with a brim, and I overlap brims when printing multiples.
