Boost Me (for free)
I’m a hobbyist who loves creating 3D models for everyone to use. If you like what you see, a Boost is greatly appreciated—it directly supports this hobby and helps me bring future projects to life.
Explore endless customization options with a fun project that lets you generate unique nametags and bespoke identity accessories. These personalized creations are the perfect way to craft memorable, customized gifts for the people you care about.
This script is incredibly robust and capable of creating highly complex items—but with that flexibility comes a bit of a learning curve. Please read the documentation to understand the full range of options available to you. If you want to jump right in, I have built in templates you can use for your projects.
There are 5 steps to follow when creating your own custom designs:
- Choose and customize your base shape: Select from standard shapes or import your own SVG to use as a custom base.
- Customize your border: Adjust the framing and edges to suit your style.
- Decorate your design: Personalize your piece with regular, curved, or dynamic lettered text, as well as SVG images and emojis.
- Select your attachments: Add loops for keychains or choose magnetic mounting options.
- Choose your colors: Pick the perfect color palette to bring your final design to life.
The true power comes from building your own designs, please add them in the comments as I would love to see what you build. For those who would prefer to get a headstart, you can tweak the templates below.
