Description

👉 Please rate the print profiles and follow me - It would help tremendously. 👈

 

A keychain with your or your family/friends name, written in individual letters, which form a flexible chain after printing. The chain is fun to fidget with :-).
Note that this model is print-in-place, so no support material is needed.

Customizing

The names are configurable with the customizer (customize button above!) or OpenSCAD - it will create a custom STL for you! To do that, please install OpenSCAD on your own computer and follow the detailed customizing instructions below or follow these in depth instructions.

 

The models (.3mf) for more than 1200 first names are included. You can download them using the “Download .3mf” button. Press “download STL” above to see also the available SCAD file!

Detailed customizing instructions

  • Download latest version of OpenSCAD, (See section "Development snapshots" at (https://www.openscad.org/downloads.html) )
  • Download the "LetterChain_V9.scad" file from here.
  • Open the .scad file in OpenSCAD.
  • Change the variables to your liking:
    • To display the customizer, in the OpenSCAD "View" menu, the option called [Hide customizer] must be unselected.
    • Alternatively, change variables in the code: You find the variables in the beginning of the .SCAD file:
      If you want the same text on each side of the cubes:
      text="Chain";
  • For fonts:
    • Set the fontname (and ensure you have that font installed on your system): fontname="Bangers";
    • The current font is “Blocktastic”, available online
  • Press "F5" to get a quick preview.
  • Press "F6" when you like the preview. This will render the geometry and takes a little time.
  • Press "F7" to save the geometry to an .STL file.
  • Slice and print the .STL file.

Some Fixes if you have issues with OpenSCAD:

1) Your font of choice is not found by OpenSCAD on your PC.

2) OpenSCAD won't pick up newly installed fonts in C:/Windows/Fonts.

  • In case new fonts are missing, put the font TTF files also in C:\Program Files/OpenSCAD/fonts/Liberation-2.00.1/ttf and restart OpenSCAD again.
  • Alternatively, put them in C:\Program Files/OpenSCAD/fonts/Lib
