Print ANY Logo in 3D

This OpenSCAD file can be used to print any logo in 3D. This makes great wall art!

3D printed Strava logo

3D printed GitHub logo

I've included the GitHub logo as a sample. The copyright for the GitHub logo belongs to GitHub, but this usage is allowed by their logo usage guidelines.

Customization Instructions

  1. Download an SVG of the logo you want to use. github-mark.svg is an example SVG of the GitHub logo.
  2. Edit the 3D-Logo.scad file to replace the github-mark.svg filename with the filename of the logo you want to use.
  3. Adjust the svg_size parameter to match the maximum width or height of your SVG logo (which you can typically find by opening the SVG file in a text editor).
  4. Adjust the hanger hole center position as needed for your logo.
  5. Adjust the output height and thickness as desired.
  6. Use OpenSCAD to produce an STL file.

Printer Settings

  • Most logos should print well in PLA or PETG.
  • As little as 5% infill should work.
  • No supports needed.
  • Print without a skirt on a small print beds (Prusa MINI).

Alternative Approach

Can't find an SVG with a good path?

If you're finding it difficult to work with an SVG, you can create the path manually. This works very well for geometric logos but can work for any logo if you use enough points.

  1. Import the logo into an image editor like the GIMP.
  2. Adjust the canvas size to 100x100. (Avoid distorting the logo while scaling it. You might need a combination of the scale tool and the resize canvas tool.)
  3. Use the measurement tools from your image editor to manually create a list of points for the perimeter of the shape you want.
  4. Save the path into the OpenSCAD file from the manual-path branch.
