Star Trek Communicator Badge (modified)

thingiverse

This is a remix of ebifa's 2-piece communicator badge from Star Trek: The Next Generation. I used MakePrintable.com to refine the model slightly, as it had trouble slicing correctly in Simplify 3D. In addition, I strongly recommend printing this vertically, not horizontally. Three-dimensional printers perform better when printing vertically because most can go at least as low as .1 mm in height, yet they are limited by the size of the nozzle (usually .4mm) for horizontal prints. As you can see from my prints of this, they turn out extremely smooth even right off the printer. Print at .1mm, add supports to prevent it from toppling over, and print. If you have Simplify 3D, I've included my factory file; just print that! Live long and prosper!
