Hanging Outgoing Mail Box Tag / Mail Box Flag

thingiverse

This is a hanging tag for wall mount mailboxes. There was a similar one on here that had protruding letters that just fell off and seemed really flimsy. I researched the size for an ISO Standard Letter envelope and made sure to stay within those constraints so the tag may be stored within the mailbox when not in use. This may also be used in the office to sort INGOING versus OUTGOING. Please be careful when selecting the color for your hanging tag if using this for official USPS mail use. According to the USPS Website: "The carrier signal flag can be any color except any shade of green, brown, white, yellow or blue. The preferred flag color is fluorescent orange. Also, the flag color must present a clear contrast with predominant color of the mailbox." I printed mine in orange filament and then dripped black nail polish into the letters for maximum contrast effect.
