I am a human being who is a big fan of customization. Recently, I was blown away by the website Thingiverse.com where people can create and share custom objects using 3D printers. In fact, I had so much fun with their Customizer tool that I used it to design this personalized item. The object you are looking at is a customized version of Thing 876282 from Thingiverse.com. You can check out the original object here: [www.thingiverse.com/thing:876282](http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:876282). You know what's cool? I created this thing using their Customizer tool. You can try it yourself! Here's a link to get started: [www.thingiverse.com/apps/customizer/run?thing_id=876282](http://www.thingiverse.com/apps/customizer/run?thing_id=876282). Instructions are below: To customize your object, follow these simple steps: • Set the width to 16. • Select a font size of 8. • Use the word "NatyCat" as the custom text. • Add a border around the object with a thickness of 2 units. • Indent the text by 2 units for added flair. • Set the number of printing steps to 50 for a high level of detail. • Choose a font that's easy to read: Great Vibes, size 1.1 times normal size. • Optimize the spacing between characters for clarity. • Vary the thickness of the text at regular intervals. • Design an object that is exactly 51 units long in one direction. • Create an item with an optimal printing height of 8 units. • Make sure your base plate is 2 units high and strong enough to hold everything. • Select a text box that fits neatly on a standard piece of paper with a maximum size of 7 inches.
