Number & Symbol Big Beads (for Horizontal and Vertical Stringing)
Iโve several people asking for double-sided Big Beads with numbers and symbols - so here they are ๐๐ผ
Update 4/21/2026: I have uploaded a new and improved version of the Number & Symbol Big Beads with the following changes: (1) The back of the Horizontal beads were upside down when they were flipped over to their back side so I fixed that. (2) I filleted the bottom edge to be the same as the top edge (so the bottom is edge is more rounded).
I have included a 3mf file of these changes titled: New & Improved Numbers & Symbols Big Beads (for Horizontal and Vertical stringing) Print Plate #1 (Big Beads for Horz. Stringing): 2 colors, outer wall width 0.6mm, inner wall width 0.6mm, order of walls (outer/inner), wall loops 3, outer wall speed 50 mm/s, inner wall speed 100 mm/s Print Plate #2 (Big Beads for Vert.. Stringing): 2 colors, outer wall width 0.6mm, inner wall width 0.6mm, order of walls (outer/inner), wall loops 3, outer wall speed 50 mm/s, inner wall speed 100 mm/s
3D Printing Settings: PLA works great Layer Height 0.2mm Infill 15% No supports needed Dimensions of beads: 1 inch diameter x โ inch thick
How to print: You can keep the beads on the plate you need and delete the ones you donโt need but I like to keep all the beads on each print plate and copy/paste the ones I need onto a third print plate.
Note: Beads can be scaled smaller just note the size of the hole will also get smaller.
I have also included a 3mf file with the following print profiles: Print Plate #1 (beads for Horizontal stringing): two colors Print Plate #2 (beads for Vertical stringing): two colors
Other items you may need if you would like to make keychains are: Elastic cord (1mm or 1.2mm thick recommended) Tassels Metal Keychain Clasp

Have fun printing! ๐ Erin








Love this design but I did noticed that when the numbers are flipped - they are incorrect and upside down. Also, they are not debossed like the alphabets are.
