What to do, when you have told all your friends an colleagues that you own a 3D printer, and now they’re all asking you for free samples?
Something like this happened to the German font designer and type artistRudolf Koch. (Link in German) He had a postcard ready that he send as a reply to anyone who asked for a sample of his art. In the end you use it at your own risk.
Theſe are two Engliſh translations of that poſtcard, a literal and an idiomatic one. The original was a print made off hand-drawn calligraphy. This is done in a font ſimilar to the original deſign, and of a ſtyle, “Schwabacher”, that Koch was quite fond of.
There are three variants of each translation:
Rudolf Koch’s reply, {literal,idiomatic}, unconnected.stl: A quick print that falls apart when you remove it from the print plate. Sort-of in line with the text.
Rudolf Koch’s reply, {literal,idiomatic}, negative.stl: The text as a negative. You can use filament changes or the nail polish and acetone-trick¹. As thingiverse adds vidios to the top automatically no link. Search youtube for “Finishing 3D prints with nailpolish and acetone”.
Rudolf Koch’s reply, {literal,idiomatic}, positive.stl: For filament change when printing.
