Emergency Debonair Card (Spare Cufflinks)

prusaprinters

<p>I made this credit-card size cuff link card for the Prusa Fashion Contest.</p> <p>Ever had one of those moments where your shirt needs cuff links, but you packed in a rush and you left them at home?</p> <p>This print is designed to solve that problem, with 2x emergency pairs of cuff links. Stuff the card in the back of your wallet, purse, or a slot in your travel suitcase.</p> <p><strong>Key Features:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Includes 2x pairs of cuff links - which pop out and fold up nicely.</li> <li>Includes two shirt-collar stiffeners too.</li> <li>And 2 spare buttons - size 12.5mm / 20L</li> <li>Printed at 2.5mm thick, should fit in a spare slot in your wallet, purse of travel bag</li> <li>And of course, features hexagons, because they are the bestagons.</li> </ul> <p>The cuff links are pretty much one time use, but will get you through an afternoon/evening of formality.</p> <p>Once you've popped the cuff link off the card, insert the stem/flat bar end though the shirt cuff <em>before</em> you bend the hinge into position.</p> <p>Hope you like it!</p> <p>(Have now included a 2mm version, for those with thick wallets!)</p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><p><strong>Update - 20th Nov</strong>: Have made a few tweaks to the file to allow the pieces to pop out more easily.</p> <p>The included GCode file has been optimised a little to print faster, and includes two filament changes, per the cover image. If you want to tweak your own settings, download the STL or 3MF file!</p> <p><strong>Slicer Settings</strong><br/> Using Prusa Slicer 2.3.0 Alpla-3 for this with;</p> <ul> <li>0.10mm DETAIL default profile</li> <li>Monotonic infill for the top layer<br/> (though the basic settings in the main release should be fine)</li> </ul> <p><strong>Printer and Filament</strong></p> <ul> <li>Printed on a Prusa MK3s, </li> <li>Using Prusament PLA Galaxy Black</li> <li>with Filamentum Extra Fill Traffic White for the inlay.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Note:</strong> I'd recommend not using a Silky filament for this - at least not for the first 1mm of the print - the additives in silk make it hard to snap off without damage.</p> <p><strong>Colour Inlay Effect</strong></p> <ul> <li>For a nice finish, you can add a colour change pause at the 2.10mm and 2.40mm height, to create a nice inlay effect.</li> </ul> <p>I've included GCode for a plain version, and one with a colour swap, per the black and white version.</p> <p>Enjoy :)</p>
