Description
An alternative version of my print-in-place keytag but without the living hinge. So you can print it in PLA without any concerns and do not have to use PETG. The keytag consists of 3 separate parts that snap together and sandwich the included nametage in between. It is printed flat on the print bed so you can make use of your different print plate textures. It closes with a nice press fit. It shouldn't open even when dropped from normal standing height but if you want to be save just add a little drop of glue before assembly.
To change the text label simply edit the preset text on the left and don't forget to right-click on the text object in the left and center it again after you did some changes. Or you can skip that object and use a paper tag instead (required thickness 0.6mm).

Note
Make sure you have dried your filament properly and use a clean build plate.
Optional
Once you tested the print you can duplicate the objects and print multiple ones at the same time. I still recommend printing each pair by object and not by layer. Please don't upload extra print profiles just for that.
Happy Printing!
