You don't know me. Everything I've ever printed was critical.

    Wow, you put real effort in that. Do you need to separate paths for that or can you 3D print any random image?

    It was actually very low effort! There are a number of image to STL converters. I used this one: https://imagetostl.com/

    Like you can see it'll flub some stuff. I would have been better off filling in the areas of text and doing the emboss manually myself, but I just wanted to hit print. 2% infill, I think it was like 2.5g of filament and 20mins.

    It's fun to screw around with that process. I'm tweaking one of my friends cabin to use to make a mold. My goal is cast concrete or something similar so I can pound some thin copper around it, and be left with a cool wall decoration.
