COLOUR CHANGE
  Badges and decorations with raised details are 4 mm plates (pocket 2 + 2 mm proud)
  with 0.8 mm of details on top. In PrusaSlicer, move the layer slider to the first
  layer above 4 mm (4.2 mm with 0.2 mm layers; the slider shows each layer's top) and
  click the + to add a colour change (M600). Everything else in such a file ends at or below 4 mm,
  so only the details change colour. Keep the layer height a divisor of 4 mm (0.1, 0.2).

FIT
  Pockets are 0.2 mm larger than the inserts on every side. Press each insert in and
  add a drop of glue. Stacked pieces (2.2 mm) sit 1 mm deep in their parent.
  If the fit is too tight, sand lightly or reprint with a larger gap; if loose, glue holds it.

COST
  About 219 g of filament and 9 h 30 min of printing in all; about 5.48 in filament at 25 per kg. Estimates, so check your slicer.

SUGGESTED SETTINGS
  0.2 mm layers (0.1-0.15 mm for the inserts gives crisper script), 3 perimeters, 15 % infill,
  first layer 0.2 mm. No supports needed.

CHECKS
  Mesh check: every solid is closed and manifold.
  Note: The letter stands on only 46 mm of flat base, so it may tip over. Raise "Flat base" under Size and fit (or hang it).
