It’s also got some great speakers attending who are gonna be hosting talks about different topics on being a maker and/or influencer in the maker space. So all around just a great time and a great place to go if you are a maker. I wanted to bring some business cards that I could hand out to people, But frankly, normal business cards are flimsy and pretty boring and most people end up throwing them away or stashing them away in a pile that they never look at again. So I decided to 3d print some. I started by taking my logo and placing it as a canvas infusion 360 [Music] then I just use the line tool to trace it if you want a more detailed look at how to design using fusion 360 I’ll have a link to the video in the top right hand corner of the screen. Then I extruded my sketch into the shape of a business card since I don’t have a multi filament printer, I would need to hot solve the filaments in the middle of the print. To make this easier, you can create a script in Kirra that pauses the print at a designated height. You just have to go to extensions and then post-processing and you can create a script. If you’ve done it correctly, you should have a wrench next year. Prepare button. I have the print pause halfway through, so I could swap the filament to white filament for the face of the business cards [Music]. I cleaned up the edges of the cards using a deburring tool. You can pick these up for ninety cents on eBay. You’ll just have to wait a month to get it my first business card holder. I made using a board of one by four poplar, and I just cut some 45 degree. Miter cuts into it and assemble those pieces together. I used a quick trick that I learned from Brad Over at fix this build that using masking tape to hold the edges of the pieces together to make glue up easier. [MUSIC] After the glue has dried, I removed the masking tape and took the business card holder over to the disk, Sander to flush up the edges then. I applied some clear polyurethane, so give it a nice, subtle finish [Music] to make the second business card holder. I just chopped off a section of a nice 2×4 Then I took it over to the descender to square up the edges. [MUSIC] Then I just drew the profile of my shape on the side of the block using the Bandsaw. I carefully cut along those lines [Music] [Music] Then I applied polyurethane to this one as well. [MUSIC] Let me know down in the comments. Which one you like better. I’m kind of torn between the two. That’s it for this week’s video.
