Features

• Eco-Friendly & Space-Saving: Print the base frame just once. Swap only the thin faceplates to completely change the look.
• Dual-Sided Design: Slide panels into both the front and back slots for a seamless look from any angle of the table.
• Smooth Sliding Fit: Tolerances are optimized for a satisfying, secure slide that doesn't require tools or force.
• Stable Footprint: Features sleek, small feet to keep the holder steady, even when napkins are running low.  Feet are printed separately and are glued on.      They have a pin to align them in the hole.  Just add glue to the hole and insert the pin into the hole.

Print Settings & Recommendations

The Base Frame

• Material: PLA or PETG (Black or a neutral color works best to let the plates pop!).
• Infill: 15% – 20% (Gyroid or Grid recommended for stability).
• Supports: None required if printed standing upright or flat, depending on your preferred orientation.

The Decorative Plates (e.g., Fun in the sun.jpg)

• Multi-Color Printing: Perfect for automatic material changers (like the Bambu AMS).
• Layer Height: $0.2\text{ mm}$ works great, but using Variable Layer Height or a finer $0.16\text{ mm}$ setting can sharpen the details on the text and stars.
• Top Surface: A textured PEI build plate gives the back of the insert a great finish, but a smooth plate ensures high contrast on the front graphic layer.
