Functional guitar picks for you playing enjoyment.The key to printing a functional guitar pick is getting it thin but strong. I found a 0.08mm layer size was key to this, as it lets me get 9 or 10 layers into a 0.7mm thick pick. Print SettingsMaterial: PLALayer Height: 0.08mmFirst Layer Height: 0.08mmInfill: 100% (though at 0.7mm you've got nothing but top and bottom layers anyway)Thickness0.7mm out of PLA feels pretty close to a Fender Medium celluloid pick. Go thicker if you want it a little heavier, but thinner may get you mixed results.DesignsTo successfully put a design on the pick, you need to minimize any lines that overlap. I limit any design to no more than 2 layers thick. I have successfully put 2 layers of design on both the top and bottom of the pick without sacrificing strength noticeably. If you're using a multi material unit to put the design on, then I find the best way to do it on something this scale is to import the base pick and the design separately, then assemble
