Door Sign

About the Door Sign

A railway-style door sign with notched corners, a framed coloured panel and raised lettering. Fix it with countersunk screws or double-sided tape.

What you can change

• Type your own text, superscript after the text and second line.
• Make one, or a whole batch at once: paste a list of names and get one each.
• Font: 26 to choose from, from script to stencil.
• Sign size: fit to the text and custom width and height.
• Corners: notched, rounded, square, oval and arched top.
• Fixing: two countersunk screw holes and none.
• Pick the border, panel and letter colours.
• Adjust superscript size, letter height, second line letter height and gap between the lines, and more.
• Turn on or off: raised border.

Size

About 20.4 × 3.8 × 0.5 cm (width × depth × height), one piece at the starting settings.

What you download

An STL for any slicer, and a 3MF with each colour as its own part, ready for an AMS or a filament change; or a PDF to print on paper or card and cut out.

Printing it

About 30 g of PLA and about 1 hour 50 minutes to print, one piece at the starting settings (15% infill, 2 walls, 0.2 mm layers, on a Bambu Lab A1). Your slicer gives the exact figures for your printer and settings.

On paper: print the PDF at 100% (actual size) on card, and cut along the fine grey lines.

Ideas for using it

• A child’s name on their bedroom door.
• Office, Studio or Do Not Disturb for a home office.
• Label a shed, workshop or playroom.
• A sign for a small business or a meeting room.

Questions

What size is it?

About 20.4 × 3.8 × 0.5 cm (width × depth × height), one piece at the starting settings. Every size is a setting, so make it as big or small as you need.

Do I need a multi-colour printer?

No. Print it in one colour, or in colours with a filament change: the Colours line under the 3D view says at which height to change. With an AMS or another multi-colour printer, the 3MF prints it in one go.

Which printers and slicers does it work with?

Any FDM printer. The STL opens in every slicer; the 3MF keeps the colours as separate parts in Bambu Studio, Orca Slicer, PrusaSlicer and Cura. Pick your printer in the designer to check it fits the plate.

Can I sell what I make?

On Pro and Ultimate you can sell the prints you make, for example on Etsy or at craft fairs. On Free and Maker, print it for yourself or give it as a gift. The STL and 3MF files themselves are never for sharing or selling.
