Yellow Ribbon Keychains

cults3d

Small prints with big meaning. Models are posted for free, however please see the "Donate" message below. I made these keychains for my high school students during our annual Yellow Ribbon Week promoting positive mental health and suicide prevention awareness. While sharing the significance of the week both generally and personally, I had students randomly select their own keychain which they placed with gratitude on their keys, backpacks, pencil bags, and more. Please read my article at 3DWithUs for more about this special project. Print in ANY color that brings you joy! Donate Rather than paying for the models, please consider making a contribution to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (or another organization) of $4.00 or whatever amount you feel appropriate and are comfortable offering. Social Media Matching Donations The matching donations for the fundraising campaign with this project has ended. Throughout November 2022, we were able to count 126 individual people posting prints of the keychains on Twitter, Instagram, Cults3D, and Printables. In addition to our planned contribution to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, my family contributed $2 to AFSP for each person posting. Also, the following companies made contributions of $1000 each. With other various contributions we noted throughout the campaign, the 3D printing community raised over $5000 through the keychain project for AFSP. Wow! Major Contributors: Printed Solid (Perfect colors for this project, by the way.) Joel Telling (the 3D Printing Nerd) LDO Motors Alien3D Thank you so much! 3DWithUs also contributed $100 to the cause. Thank you, 3DWithUs! Be sure to tag me @abbymath (Twitter) or @abbymath3d (Instagram) and @PrintedSolid and include the hashtag #YellowRibbon3DPrint. Give the keychains to your friends and loved ones! Words have Power Models included for 10 words: ASPIRE, BELIEVE, CREATE, DREAM, EXPLORE, HOPE, RESOLVE, SMILE, STRIVE, WISH. I printed with dual extrusion, but they could print in one color with raised letters or print only the bases for an embossed look. With a two-color printing setup, they may also be printed flat since the letters are embedded in the model. Also included are STL files for all 10 grouped together for an easy setup of the entire collection. Box model included as well. See details about the box in 3D Printing Settings below. See photos for examples of each style. Additional printing details below.
