Technical design My veteran’s pin is a print in place mechanism. The star ring and the center are two different pieces that lock together. They have a tolerance of .5mm I made sure to make the details not to small so that they won’t get lost in the 3d printing quality I made every height working in increments of .2 which is the layer height of most 3d printer settings. This will provide optimal 3d printing quality Meaning behind it The star in the middle represents the person who served. They hold the shield, and they are the guardians of their country. With wings around it. The half circle indent represents those who did not make it. It holds the star and wings up. There are 13 stars around the rotating ring to represent the original 13 colonies.
