3D render of a black, white and red 3D-printed I love supports keychain with a steel split ring through its hole
Print only ~5 g

The souvenir "I heart" mark with SUPPORTS underneath: a black plate, white letters and a red heart raised above them. Every maker has spent an evening picking supports out of a print with pliers, which is why this is a joke. Fittingly, it prints flat and needs none at all. Good for a maker's birthday, a 3D printing club, a print farm team or Secret Santa among makers.

Made with our free I love you keychain generator, not modelled by hand: we typed SUPPORTS, set the width to 60 mm and the white and red rises to 0.8 mm each, and left everything else at the page's defaults (the Fun & Bold font, the keyring hole beside the I). The zip holds exactly what the tool downloads: a 3MF with the plate, the letters and the heart as separate coloured parts, and a one-piece STL. It comes out 60 by 38 mm and 4 mm thick, and prints flat with no supports.

Hand it over with a pair of flush cutters. They will know exactly what you mean. Printed in one colour it still reads, because the letters stand proud of the tag; for black, white and red, a single-nozzle printer needs two filament changes, and the print sheet in the zip says where.

Shown as a 3D render of the printed keychain with a steel split ring, not a photo.

What you need

2
  • About 5 g of PLA or PETG, in black, white and red
  • A split ring or keyring, about 25 mm across

How to make it

4
  1. Print it flat as exported: no supports, 0.4 mm nozzle, 0.2 mm layers.

  2. Multi-colour printer: open the 3MF, each part already carries its colour. Single nozzle: add a filament change in the slicer's layer preview for white at 2.3 mm and red at 3.1 mm above the bed.

  3. Let the bed cool before you lift the tag off, so the thin edges stay flat.

  4. Open the split ring with a thumbnail or a small screwdriver and wind it through the hole.

Questions about this design

Does the I love supports keychain need supports to print?

No, and that is the punchline. It prints flat on the bed with nothing overhanging, so there is nothing to clean up. Print it, peel it off and hand it to the friend who complains about supports the most.

Who is the I love supports keychain for?

For anyone who owns a 3D printer and has ever spent an evening cutting supports out of a print. It is a joke every maker gets at once, which makes it a good giveaway at a maker faire or a club meeting.

Where do I change filament to print the I love supports keychain in 3 colours?

Start in black, then change to white at 2.3 mm and red at 3.1 mm above the bed. Those heights are measured in the file, from its lowest point, which is where your slicer puts the bed; add each change in the layer preview where the new colour first shows. With a multi-colour printer, skip all that and open the 3MF.
