This design provides a customized name plate with letters that sweep in a curved arc. The previous model didn't work properly in Thingiverse's Customizer, but this version seems to work OK, as of 10 July 2023.
One way to print this is to rotate the part in your slicer so the front of the letters are in contact with the bed, then print the first couple of layers with a contrasting color. This will require you to print with supports. Otherwise, supports shouldn't be necessary.
OpenSCAD seems unable to render if the variable **fn** (used for $fn in the rotate_extrude function) is too large. I don't know why.
