This 3D Printed Nintendo Logo Sign is (BACK)LIT!

In this #YouTube #Short, we show you our latest 3D print design, a Backlit Nintendo Logo Sign!

One of the first prints I ever attempted when I first got a 3D printer was a Nintendo Logo Sign that you could install lights into. The issue I ran into was that the letters never fit into the white part of the print properly, they were just too big. I was thinking about trying to make this work again recently when a solution hit me: a 2-color print with a filament change mid-print!

I've been playing with this a lot lately, from a regular Nintendo Sign in red and white, a Black and Yellow Diskun, Nintendo's Famicom Disk System Mascott, and most recently, a Blue Sega Logo with white backdrop. It got me thinking, what if I do a 2 Color print with a filament change part way through, and instead of trying to fit the letters into place having them print in place?! So I took the designs, dropped them into Tinkercad, aligned the layers, sliced it in Cura, and started printing.
