Awesome video! Prusa slicer has a text editing tool if you have a design you want to make and the only variation is the text, like in this video. I found the easiest way is to create your stl file from Fusion 360 without any text then add generic text in prusa slicer which you edit for each individual case. But first you have to preset and add all the color Changes you want, then save it as a .3mf file. Every time you want to Change the text you just right click and edit the text in the text modifier you now have created and start to print. In any case, I have found this to be somewhat simpler ( than opening up Fusion/ open up the Project /finding the correct sketch/ then Edit the sketch /then export as a stl file/ then import the stl file to the slicer | In the slicer: adjust the color Changes every time [ the last Step I guess you can Skip if you already made a 3mf file for one of your projects ] . But, of course, the prusa slicer is not as suitable to show a representative suggestion of how the end result will be to a potential customer... Anyways, keep up the good work! 👍 /Cheers
I'm tempted to try to print the tag in two halves, with text flush on the textured build plate. Then 3m 90 to stick them together. Thanks for the video, this is a great idea
Nive! Another thing that I did for one of them was print the letters themselves slightly smaller (using offsets) facedown and then glued them into place!
@@madebyjwillis A quick and dirty attempt at a 2-piece card turned out pretty good. I used E6000 glue and it worked pretty well even though the dry time is excessive. I will add some alignment pegs to keep the halves lined up in v2. Having the textured surface on both sides makes it look really good. Too bad youtube doesn't allow pictures or videos as a comment!

Nice! I might try some type of “slot” mechanism similar to what you’re doing! Would love to see it over on Facebook or Twitter!
