Named Magnet (OpenScad, Two Color Print)

thingiverse

This is a thing for your SCRUM board: Print one for each team member and use them to fix the task tickets to the white board. Now everybody in the team knows who is working on which task. To make it, you will also need a magnet, I used these: http://www.magnete.com/en/discmagnets/0602. Instructions If your team members have another name as "Holger" you will need to edit the scad file and change some parameters. I have left in the values I used to print names of different lengths, you can use these as starting points. If the result looks particularly ugly you can tweak the values in the arrays kern[] and scale[] to improve the results. (Change kern to shift the letters along the x-axis and change scale to change the x-size of a letter.) When you are satisfied, change the boolean "design" to false and render the result as two stl files (for multiple color printing). Uncomment the knobBody() or the knobText() calls in the last three lines of the scad script to to this. Use your favorite slicer to merge the stl files for your printer (I used my own version of RepRapPro's slicer: https://github.com/holgero/RepRapProSlicer with a layer height of 0.3 mm and 20% infill density. Last step: glue the magnet into the knob.
