NA Keytags

This is a Narcotics Anoymous Keytag. Can print in any color combo, and any amount of clean time.

It uses 25mm or 1 inch key rings. Here are some at Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C4KRYZ1W?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1

I updated it to handle the M4x5mm Chicago Screws, by opening the screw/rivet holes a little bit. The Chicogo screws can be found on Amazon here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CYZZTGF3?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title

    • Place the file somewhere you can find it so you can slice and print it. (instructions_10.png)

  • I am using the Sovol SV06 with Marlin
    • The Line I use to change the fillament color is
      ;BEGIN Filament Change
      M600 E30.00 U300.00 X0.00 Y0.00
      ;END Filament Change
    • In any of the slicers, first slice the object the way you want it.
      • Next
        • In Orca Slicer or Prusa Slicer, this line goes at the line where the new color will be.
          "0.64" and "2.64"
        • Cura has a color change option built in.

I like to print in multiple colors, so the text indentation in highlighted, by printing a single layer of an offset color at the bottom of the text indentations.

The way I do multiple colors in the "Cura" slicer is to:

  • First open the stl file and slice it (it is most likely 4mm nozzle with 2mm layer hight)
  • Navigate to Extensions | Post Processing | Modify G-Code | Add Script | Filament Change | Layer
  • The numbers need to be "4, 5, 11, 12"
  • Now Slice and "Save to Disk"
  • While printing, it will pause and change filament, at the correct places to add one layer of the highlight color on each side of the text.

Recent changes:
Made letters a little larger, so they are more legible.
Corrected orientation of NA logo, so it is no longer reversed.
