Text necklace (awkward turtle)

thingiverse

A text necklace features words translated into diverse languages and alphabets; any text works. The detailed instructions explain how to create and modify this unique piece using Adobe Illustrator, and cut it with a Trotec laser cutter. However, the current design requires improvements. Firstly, experimenting with pliable materials like leather may solve the issue of neck comfort as cardboard, plywood, and plexiglass don't conform well to body shape. Secondly, decreasing text size could help. Lastly, using flexible materials would necessitate including a clasp for tying the ends together, as mentioned in the instruction manual. Both necklace design and instructions are works-in-progress.
