MegaBrick Generic Football Player

Do you look at the MegaBrick models, particularly the sports teams ones, and think "It'd be great if someone would do my team, maybe I'll do it sometime." And then you never do.

Now you can and it's really easy.

  1. Simply print the generic player and obtain a picture of the shirt front you need.

  2. Then go to the Image To Keychain utility on Makerworld and convert the image.  

  3. Clean up the image by selecting stray colours and changing them.

  4. Resize to slightly larger than the front part (76mm by 64mm).  

  5. Set the Plate thickness to 5mm, the image thickness to 1mm, the background colour to whatever you're printing the torso as and select facedown mode.

  6. Then download and open the .3mf

  7. Save the negative part as an stl from plate 8 of the generic model then load that as a negative part to the “keychain”, position, preview and print.

Any team in any professional or amateur league, printed.

I've done the England and Scotland strips, the England keeper strip too. I'll add more in the next few weeks, I've got my kids team done already. Any requests or maybe you'd prefer to do yours yourself...

Can I change my ssid and password to match my old provider?

I'm in the middle of a Plusnet install. When it's finished can I change the ssid and password to match my old Virgin settings so that I don't have to reconnect my fire stick, cameras, relays etc to the new ssid?

Is there any reason this wouldn't work?

Waking early and discovering that the kettle has broken, now using the microwave to make my morning cuppa.

Can't even nip to the supermarket to buy a kettle. Initially I'd hoped that it was a fuse or trip problem. I can fix that. I can't fix a kettle.
