Modular Plant Markers

For our herb bed, I wanted to print some plant markers. However, everything I found was very simple and minimalist. Therefore, I designed these markers, which have more of a vintage look.

In addition, they are modular. The base and the label are printed separately and can be assembled without glue. The marker holds securely but can be removed with a tap on the hand. (See GIF) If something changes in the garden, only the label needs to be reprinted and replaced, not the entire base.

I have created a selection of labels in English and German. In the slicer, the text field can be changed directly if something is missing. Feel free to upload additional text inserts for other users.

The GCODE for the label includes a pause before Layer 5, so that even without AMS, a manual change to a different color can be made and the lettering becomes visible.

Since I currently only have black PETG at home, I did my tests with PLA. However, due to outdoor use and damp soil, PETG or similar should be used. Indoor, it should also be sufficient to only print the base from PETG. With the label, you can then let your creativity run wild with material and color.
