The file 'SpaceX Key Fob 3D Printer Model' is (stl) file type, size is 184.1KB.
Created for SpaceX fans... a simple key fob using the logo styling to form the outline shape of the key fob. They look great printed in 2 or 3 colors. Just pause your machine at the relevant times mid-print and swap the filament color.
To make the SpaceX Key Fob multi colour (based on standard scale use) please use the following as a guide:
spacex_2.stl
This is the 2 colour version. The base is 2.85mm tall so swap your filament at 3mm through the print (if you can pause by mm build height) and change the filament colour. If you cannot pause in this way you will need to pause the machine manually. In this case watch the print and, when you can see the base surface is fully covered and the machine starts only printing the lettering manually pause your machine, swap the filament then restart to complete the print.
spacex_3.stl
First pause as above. The second change is just 1mm build height later (3.85mm) which will not take long at all because to reach as the lettering is all that is being printed at that stage. Use the same principal as above by watching the lettering closely as it is formed. The final part is only the long part of the X. That prints an additional 1mm higher than the rest of the text so can be printed in a third colour.
This is a small, quick and easy print that won't use much filament. At standard scale the fob is 85mm in length including the key ring attachment part. This makes the fob a similar length to many car remote controls.
Please note that the design can be scaled up or down however scaling down is likely to affect the sharpness of the text as not all machines will be able to print as finely / precisely as this would require.
This is a fun little print that will be appreciated by any SpaceX fan.
Please refer the images and print instructions provided for additional information and share photos of your printed Key Fobs for other members to see.
