Description:

This is a design I came up with when a friend showed me a picture and asked me if it would be possible to print something similar. After a quick search that was not returning anything I liked I saw it as a weekend project and here is the outcome :-)

For assembly, each side needs two M2x10 screws and the stand needs two M3x20 screws. For the multiple colors, simply add a color change during the print for the first layer of the letters. All the letters start at the same height so no need to print different letters individually.

The board, the sides and the letters work best at 0.2mm, the stand at 0.3mm. I used PLA in the process. Also note that all the parts barely fit on a Mk3. And the parts for the stand need to be rotated at an angle to fit.

All the letters slide sideways into the board and when the sides are screwed on, they cannot fall out anymore.

If you like this project, please send me a picture of your make. That's all I need :-)
