About this generator
Modelador 3D Name String Art Generator turns a name into a printed frame with pins that follow the outline of each letter, including the inner shapes of letters like O and A. You print it, then wind your own thread or yarn around the pins; the thread itself is not part of the file. It comes from the small Brazilian studio behind the Modelador 3D Part Generator.
You type one line of text and choose a pill or oval frame, a letter height of 25 to 90 mm, the pin spacing, diameter and height, the base thickness, the margin and two mounting holes near the top. Long names are thinned out automatically to stay under about 420 pins. Only block-style fonts such as sans, condensed and slab work in this version, not script. The frame prints flat with the pins pointing up and needs no supports; PLA is recommended because it flexes less under thread tension.
The page says plainly that the design has not been printed yet: the checks so far are geometric (a closed mesh with no self-intersections), and the pins are meant for light thread, not for carrying weight. The technical text is in Portuguese with menus partly translated, and the STL download is free after registering a first name and a verified email.
