BTS Maker Coin

prusaprinters

<p>This is my first real attempt at making a maker coin/brand logo. I wanted to incorporate my "stop and smell the roses" mentality. Along with technology. Hence the five "pedals", circuits, and LEDs.</p> <p>I am still working on some elements. Such as the text on the back, that hopefully will point people toward my website.</p> <p>www.benstechstop.com</p> <p>I would be happy to hear your thoughts. Whether my intent comes across, and your first impressions. I welcome constructive criticism, or praise. Praise never hurts. :D</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer:</strong></p> <p>Folgertech FT-5</p> <p class="detail-setting rafts"><strong>Rafts: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div> <p><strong>Supports:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p class="detail-setting resolution"><strong>Resolution: </strong> <div><p>0.2 mm</p></div> <p><strong>Infill:</strong></p> <p>25%</p> <p><br/> <p class="detail-setting notes"><strong>Notes: </strong></p> </p><div><p>I found that it printed in about 20 minutes, with quite nice quality at a layer height of 0.2 mm. It uses very little filament, and looks pretty good. I tried increasing its size by 10,15, and 20%; but it seems to come out best at its original size. I may experiment more with it, depending on what happens.</p></div> Post-Printing ============= <p><strong>Painting a Maker Coin</strong></p> <div><p>I tried out painting with acrylic pants, just to see how it would look, and how long it would take. I figure a "premium" maker coin could be handy at times. It can be done pretty quickly, with minimal effort. So, I may make a few batches of plain and premium maker coins.</p></div> </p></p> Category: Coins & Badges
