Home Office Do Not Disturb Sign by ThatEngineeringGuy

Last crawled date: 4 years, 1 month ago

Like many people right now, I am working from home five days a week, and school's closed, and I've had my kids barge in when I was in a teleconference. So I made up this sign. It's an easy print, the only challenge is it's supposed to be made in three colours. You print one side in a friendly colour (mine's blue). The middle should be white or silver or grey so the text stands out. The Do Not Disturb side is red on my sign, you can pick any signal colour you like of course.
Each layer is 1.2 mm thick in the model, so this works when you print at 0.2 mm or 0.3 mm resolution. When you insert the material change in Slic3r, you have to understand that you tell Splic3r what layer is going to be the FIRST layer in the NEW colour. So in case of 0.2 mm resolution, you insert one change at 1.4 mm, and one at 2.6 mm. This confused me a lot at first.
The sign will work for any regular European door handle I should think. It doesn't work for US round turning style knobs. I'm sure you fellas can come up with your own.
