<p>These designs were made with a flat-back surface to be wall mountable. &nbsp;The height of these designs, while laying on it's back, is 8 mm with the width at 100 mm. &nbsp;You can resize/rescale it for your printing pleasure.</p><p>You can choose between, for each rank, either the <strong>Whole</strong> or <strong>Split</strong> version.&nbsp;</p><p>I decided to split the rank design because I wanted the shield to be a different color from the bottom chevron. &nbsp;Kind of like the actual collared version rank, right?! &nbsp;By aligning the key-whole (male/female end) on the back of the shield and on the mount base on the chevron, it is self-centering thus making it a complete rank! &nbsp;<strong>(See Pictures)</strong></p><p>I Recommend using the “Z Hop - Retraction” when printing the shield. &nbsp;The following settings for retractions on this design are from Ultimaker's - Cura Slicer:</p><p><strong>Print Travel:</strong> &nbsp;*<strong>Please note, the setting below may increase your print time!</strong>**</p><p>Enable Retractions: &nbsp;Yes</p><p>Retract at Layer Change: &nbsp;Yes</p><p>Avoid Printed Parts While Traveling: &nbsp;Yes (This helps a little to avoid Stringing)</p><p>Z Hop When Retracting: &nbsp;Yes</p><p>Z Hop Height: &nbsp;0.2</p><p>Much love to my Guardians out there, who are always on call and always ready to save the day!</p><p>I hope you all enjoy and have fun with the designs!</p>
