Label System for Museum Collections, etc.

thingiverse

This little gadget makes it easy to attach labels to both big and small objects. It prints fast at .3 layer height, using less than two grams of plastic for twenty of them. You can fit many on your build platform all at once. Standard office labels come with a simple loop of string that is hard to attach to smaller objects. You'll need: * Unbleached cotton string or other high-quality string * Labels: Print the .pdf template onto an 8.5" x 11" card stock, and set it to fit your printer's borders. Punch holes with a hole punch To use: 1) Tie the thread around the end of the loop opposite the part with the vertical split, then wrap the thread around the object. 2) Thread the other end of the string up through the hole, pull it tight, and press down through the centre of the vertical catch to secure it. You can also make one wrap around the vertical part before securing it through the centre catch. 3) Attach a label to the hanging end of the string and trim ends as needed.
