How to use this model

Use cases, fit and pre-production checks

The model is optimized for 3D printing and available in STL, OBJ, FBX, and GLB formats. Printing with supports is recommended, especially for overhangs, to ensure maximum accuracy and smoothness of the neon groove. Scaling is possible, but keep in mind that reducing the size may make the groove too narrow for standard neon cords. Any printing material can be used, but for the best visual effect, plastics that are easy to post-process (sanding, painting) are recommended. In the gaming industry and AR/VR, this model can serve as an excellent environmental element, adding realism and atmosphere to scenes requiring neon lighting. Due to its versatility, the letter 'D' can be used as part of a logo, shop sign, bar or club interior element, or even as part of an interactive art installation. For display or decoration, the model can be placed on a shelf, table, or wall, highlighting its unique design and backlighting capability.
