My wife asked me to create one key holder for our kitchen where we could keep our keys, garage and car remote controls as well with some extra room for some small objects sometimes we carry in the pocket like coins and other stuff.
After searching on the web for some ideas I found a nice theme and created this project.
Hope you all like it.
In my case I used multiple colours and materials to print the text, but is up to the each one on choosing what to use.
In this particular project I used PLA, PETG and ABS printed on 0.2mm layers hight, as I wanted to give as much colour as possible, so in order to do this, I used all the filaments I had available regrdless for their type.
The text pieces snugfit tight on the base but I used some plastic glue to keep them propperly fix.
The tray fits tight on the base so I did not glued it, if fact Im planing to do one upgrade so this piece can be removed and installed on the new part, like a lego.
Note:
If you want to print the letters indidually and/or if you have a textured spring sheet, I suggest to flip the text and the base in order to get the textured finishing on the parts front face as I did, this ill give an extra touch on the finishing.

Added to the original key holder, there are now new files for a coin holder with two types of tray and one version of coin holder without tray.
The coin holder is based on a project by MAXimator found in Thingiverse and Printables on the links below:
