# Frog Keychain Accessory (_remix_)\r\n\r\nInstead of a key fob with smooth surfaces I wanted to create something with unique texture. I could have embossed, raised, or cut in a pattern but I wanted it to be easy to make.\r\n\r\nI had seen a **[CHEP video](https://youtu.be/xc-6xVB9H4I)** where the slicer's infill was used to create patterns and make them visible by adjusting the thickness of the top and bottom.\r\n\r\nSince the pattern I chose doesn't interconnect the bottom height was increased and the *infill line multiplier* was set to 5. That made sure that the infill was sturdy enough to be exposed.\r\n\r\nThen the top thickness was set to 0mm to make the infill pattern visible. \r\n\r\n## Remix Changes\r\n\r\nI used Tinkercand and replaced the extended leg with a mirror of the other leg. I also increased height to 4mm.\r\n\r\n## Print Details\r\n\r\n**Printer:** Creality Ender 3 Pro\r\n\r\n**Filament:** Sunlu, PETG, bright green\r\n\r\n**Temperatures:** 225C / 75C\r\n**Nozzle:** 0.4mm\r\n**Initial layer height:** 0.2mm\r\n**Layer height:** 0.2mm\r\n\r\n**Wall Thickness:** 1.6mm\r\n**Top Thickness:** 0.0mm (_zero mm_)\r\n**Bottom Thickness:** 4.8mm\r\n\r\n**Infill:** 22.5% concentric\r\n**Infill line multiplier:** 5\r\n\r\n**Cooling:** none\r\n**Print Speed(LCD):** 100%\r\n**Adhesion:** 3mm brim + hairspray\r\n**Supports:** none\r\n\r\nPrinted on smooth glass using hairspray and a 3mm brim for adhesion. \r\n\r\nManually adjusted cooling from 25 to 30% after the first 2 to 3 layers. This seemed to reduce the amount of fine stringing.\r\n\r\nSlowed (*via LCD*) the print speed to 80% around half-way through.\r\n\r\nPost printing clean-up was done with:\r\n\r\n**Deburring tool** - for removing brim remnants and finishing the edges\r\n**Hobby knife with a #11 blade** - brim removal, deburring, and clean-up\r\n**Medium length tapered bead file** - for cleaning up places where the knife or deburring tool wouldn't fit\r\n\r\n## Included File(s)\r\n\r\n**`Frog_Keychain-remix.stl`** - STL file, with changes\r\n\r\n## To Do\r\n\r\nTweak the infill density, multiplier, and other values in order to improve details and eliminate artifacts.
