# Atari & Firebee Shopping Trolley Key (Multi-Material)
|
||
|
||
A high-quality, ergonomic shopping trolley chip (23mm diameter) featuring the iconic **Atari** and **Firebee** logos. This project is specifically designed for multi-material 3D printers like the **Flashforge Adventurer 5M Pro (AD5X)** or printers equipped with an AMS/MMU.
|
||
|
||
## 🚀 Overview
|
||
|
||
This OpenSCAD project generates a "key-style" trolley chip. Unlike a simple round coin, this design includes a 45mm handle for easy insertion and removal from trolley slots. It supports up to **4 different colors** in a single print.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
### Features
|
||
- **Front Side:** Deep-engraved Atari Logo.
|
||
- **Back Side:** Deep-engraved Firebee Logo.
|
||
- **Handle:** Customized "logo_text.svg" inlay and a 5mm keychain hole.
|
||
- **Parametric Design:** Fully adjustable via OpenSCAD.
|
||
- **Optimized for AD5X:** Designed to be printed with the first layer facing the bed for a perfectly smooth logo finish.

## 🛠 Print Settings (Optimized for 0.4mm Nozzle)
|
||
|
||
To achieve the best results with the fine logo details, use the following settings:
|
||
|
||
| Parameter | Recommended Value |
|
||
| :--- | :--- |
|
||
| **Layer Height** | 0.15mm (0.2mm for First Layer) |
|
||
| **Wall Loops** | 4 (Important for handle strength) |
|
||
| **Top/Bottom Shells** | 5 |
|
||
| **Infill** | 30% (Gyroid or Honeycomb) |
|
||
| **First Layer Speed** | 15–20 mm/s (Slow is critical for inlays) |
|
||
| **Z-Hop** | 0.4mm |
|
||
| **Prime Tower** | Enabled (Prevents color bleeding) |

## 📖 How to Use
|
||
|
||
### 1. Preparation
|
||
Place your SVG files in the same folder as the `.scad` file:
|
||
- `logo_atari.svg`
|
||
- `logo_firebee.svg`
|
||
- `logo_text.svg`
|
||
|
||
### 2. Exporting STLs
|
||
In OpenSCAD, use the `export_mode` variable to render and export the four individual parts:
|
||
1. `chip` -> `base.stl` (The main body)
|
||
2. `atari` -> `inlay_atari.stl`
|
||
3. `firebee` -> `inlay_firebee.stl`
|
||
4. `text` -> `inlay_text.stl`
|
||
|
||
### 3. Slicing (Crucial Step)
|
||
1. Import **all 4 STLs** into your slicer at once.
|
||
2. When prompted: **"Load as a single object with multiple parts?"**, select **YES**.
|
||
3. Ensure the parts are merged/grouped correctly in the object list.
|
||
4. **Check the Preview:** Look at Layer 1. Ensure the slicer isn't "over-printing" the logos with the base color. The base should leave exact gaps for the inlays.
|
||
|
||
### 4. Color Selection
|
||
For maximum contrast, we recommend:
|
||
- **Base:** Black or Dark Grey
|
||
- **Atari Logo:** Red or White
|
||
- **Firebee Logo:** Pink or Orange
|
||
- **Handle Text:** Light Blue or Lime Green

## 📸 Screenshot Mode
|
||
The code includes a built-in toggle for documentation. Set `show_screenshot_view = true;` in OpenSCAD to see a perfectly centered, side-by-side view of both the front and back of the key.
