Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Open your 3D modeling software and create a square base with dimensions around 4 cm x 4 cm x 0.5 cm.
2. Design raised or engraved text on the front side: “Sizinle kesişen yol.”
3. Design raised or engraved text on the back side: “Dalgasına bakanlar kulubu since 2020.”
4. Export your design as an STL file.
5. Load the STL file into your 3D printer slicer software and set the filament color to black.
6. Print the keychain base.
7. Once printed, lightly sand edges for smoothness.
8. Use white paint or paint pens to fill in the text on both sides.
9. For any text that requires emphasis (like “since 2020”), highlight those letters in red paint.
10. Allow paint to dry completely.
11. Attach the keyring hardware through a small hole or loop designed in the model.
12. Optionally, seal the paint with a clear varnish for durability.
