Derived from
Bottle Name Tag with Logo
by daniel
Description
An OpenSCAD script to create clips with your name on it which can be used to mark your bottles. In contrast to the original version by daniel, this derivative is easier adaptable and knows the following parameters:
- name
- logo (DXF, should be 50mm*50mm)
- radius at upper and lower side
- height
- font
The name tag itself resides as a module in `bottle-clip.scad`, and there are some ready-to-use examples in `examples.scad`. Feel free to modify them.
Note that the STL provided here ist just for illustration. You can print it though, if you want ;-) There are also some logo samples which you can use.
Update 2013-03-26: add Club Mate logo. The script needs Write.scad and fonts in write/ subfolder now.
Update 2013-06-06: added Tetris S piece and a glider. This thing is now maintained on GitHub: github.com/rohieb/bottle-clip-name-tag

Instructions
1) Get Write.scad and some fonts from thingiverse.com/thing:16193, put it into a subfolder named "write"
2) Create a logo as a DXF of 50mm x 50mm, or use one of the supplied logos.
3) Load bottle-clip.scad into OpenSCAD. At the bottom, there is an example for 4 name tags. Change the desired options (name, logo, etc.) to your needs.
4) Render, export to STL and print it.

Pay attention to the fact, that the letters of the names do not print well with a 0.5mm nozzle. (no they don't ptint well at all :[)
You could try to make the text a bit thicker by changing the thickness in line 47 of the SCAD script to something other than 0.7. I had problems to print the text with my 0.35mm nozzle in that case, but ymmv.
