prusaprinters

<p>I wanted to create a name-tag with some mechanical motion but still functional as a name-tag!</p><p>I have incorporated a very simple system of 3 gears that display one of the following three options when you rotate the knob connected to one of the gears.</p><ul><li>Idea</li><li>Design</li><li>FDM</li></ul><figure class="media"><oembed url="https://youtu.be/dV9IipbxgHw"></oembed></figure><p>Also, the name-tag does not use safety pins or similar options to attached on clothing but utilizing small magnets and a thin piece of plastic that put between any clothing it is hold securely, but can be moved around and no need to puncture holes on a nice jacket or so! See picture Name-tag hanging from filament!</p><p>I have included pre-sliced files for a stock MK3S+ with a 0.4 E3D nozzle using PrusaSlicer 2.4.2. Two parts (Gear-Letter_9_teeth* and Top_Sunjay*) require to change filament colors during the print. The printer will pause and prompt you how.</p><p>Also, in commemoration of Sunjay Mortimer I have created an embossed label with his name.</p><p>To complete the Name Tag you will need the following:</p><ul><li>Print <i><strong>Blank_Name_Tag_Gears </strong></i>and <i><strong>Gear-Letter_9_teeth.</strong></i><ul><li>Sunjay option print also <i><strong>Top_Sunjay</strong></i></li></ul></li><li>4 &nbsp;<i>6 mm x 3 mm round magnets</i></li><li>2 <i>M2 or M2.2 4mm shelf tapping screws. Instead of screws, glue can be used to join the posts to the Top plate but be careful not to glue the gears.</i></li><li><i>Sharpie to write your name!</i></li></ul><p><i>Assembly video below:</i></p><figure class="media"><oembed url="https://youtu.be/PZ4f0rCjcF8"></oembed></figure><p>Enjoy!</p>
