Easy print D12, 20mm high, beveled digits

thingiverse

I tested http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:33313 but experienced issues due to sharp digits. I then created a version with beveled edges for the digits, 20mm high, and painted with acrylic spray for improved appearance. The digits were also altered to have points facing upwards in the pentagons to avoid arguments over underlined digits. While a standard digit order was not found, I arranged them clockwise as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and their opposites adding to 13. To overcome the issue of differing appearances on flat or last layer bases, I printed the design on an edge or corner, surprisingly this worked well with a sharp-edged dodecahedron. The result was uniform appearance as no face was flat top or bottom. To print this version, only one line of filament is needed for stability. Another version printed on a corner was added, providing optimal angles for underside printing and a clean look. This version required a cross hairs support for stability, which was easy to remove.
