TOYOTA badge

I absolutely love this badge/logo - it's perfect! However, my printer couldn't handle its massive size. To fix this issue, I cleverly cut it in half and added an extra support rail at the bottom for added stability. Next, I carefully drilled tiny 1mm holes into the ends of the support rails, knowing that a standard 1mm hole wouldn't print correctly on my printer. Instead, I used these small holes as guides to drill out larger ones using a 0.8mm drill bit. To secure everything together, I straightened and cut up a paper clip, inserted it into the holes, and applied some super glue for added hold. Since I printed this in ABS plastic, I'm confident that it's incredibly strong. Now, all I need to do is remove some top layer scarring - probably by running it on a belt sander and then smoothing it off with 220 wet sand.
