How to 3D print a name keychain
A simple workflow for turning a name into a useful, printable keychain.
Choose a short, readable name
Start with a name or nickname that fits comfortably on the preview. Bold, rounded fonts are usually easiest to read and print.
Check the backing and hole
Keep enough material around the keyring hole and inspect the generated model in your slicer before printing.
Export and test
Export STL or 3MF, slice with your usual profile, and make one small test print before producing a batch.
