Durable Dog Name Tag (Customizable)

Durable Dog Name Tag (Customizable) A simple and durable bone-shaped dog tag with space for a phone number or home adress on the back. Keep your furry friend safe while looking great on their collar! I designed this tag with inset text rather than raised text. Because dog tags constantly rub against collars, fur, and other metal rings, raised text tends to wear off quickly. By recessing the text into the model, the name and phone number stay protected and readable, no matter how actively your dog plays or scratches. How to customize in your slicer I have included a blank bone tag file. You can easily add your own text directly in PrusaSlicer, Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer, NextSlicer, etc: - Right-click the model in your slicer and select Add Part > Text.

- Type your dog's name for the front and set the text type to Negative Volume with a depth around 1.0mm.

- Flip the model and repeat the process for your phone number/adress on the back with a depth around 0.8mm..

How to customize in SolidWorks I have also inluded the SolidWorks part so you can edit it in there if your slicer does not support part modification - Double click on the Cut-Extrude name text feature and edit it's sketch

- Double click the name text on the part

- Edit the text and font to your desires

- You might need to change the dimensions of the sketch text supporting line to center the text properly

- Repeat for the text on the back, you can supress the feature if you don't want text on the back side

- Confirm your edits and export the file to your desired slicer file format

Print Settings & Recommendations - Material: PETG is highly recommended for outdoor durability, UV resistance, and strength, but PLA (especially Wood PLA for a classic look!) works perfectly fine too.

- Layer Height: 0.12 mm or 0.2 mm (A lower layer height provides much cleaner results for the small text).

- Infill: 100% (It's a small part, so solid infill ensures the ring loop won't snap).

- Supports: None needed.
