M12 Impact Name Tag ==================== This is my Milwaukee impact driver name tag model I made some time ago. It has held up pretty well and was pretty simple to but together. I modeled it after the sticker that was originally on this side of the impact. ------------------------------------------ Instructions: --------------------- This model is fairly simple to make. - First, you will need to open to cad file provided and edit it to your liking. I used my name and profession along with a simple free-to-use svg I found online. I then extruded all that out at -1mm. So what that did was cut 1 millimeter into the model. - After that's done you are ready to print it. When printing it is up to you as far as the print setting goes however because it's going to be used on a tool I highly recommend just setting the infill at 99 and lowering the resolution to get the best layer adhesion. I would also run a brim on it if you have bed adhesion issues with smaller parts. - Now that the part has been customized and printed you will need to remove the stickers from your impact and clean the area. You can then take a heat gun and heat up the bottom of the name tag. I recommend getting a towel so you don't burn yourself. After it's hot enough you can set it onto the impact and put the towel over it. Press it into the impact so it will form to the curve of the impact. Hold it there while it cools and then you can remove it. - You can now sand it or paint it or perform any post-processing you like and when you are ready you can add some superglue to the back of it and place it on your impact. *please note this is a very permanent procedure.
