Porg Mailbox Flag and Mount or Binary Indicator

Star Wars Porg Mailbox Flag and Mount or Binary Indicator

NOTE: Recently new Thing posts are disappearing into the ether and don't appear under my designs or via a search, so you might want to Like or Save to Collection if you want to find it later.

While designed as mailbox flags, these can be used for any type of binary indicator. Yes/No, Clean/Dirty, Come in/Go Away, etc.

This series of mailbox flags are based on the great design by jdpurcell - https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3487401

Thingiverse is still broken and won't allow me to designate the original source files such as the one above and this one:

It is not a standard (if there is such a thing) mount, so you will probably have to drill new holes in the mailbox and use 2 flat or round head countersunk machine screws to mount.

The mount has a small nub to keep the flag verticle when raised. If too tight, file down the flag a bit. If too loose,file down the raised sections of the inner mount.

I would recommend using PLA+ or PETG/ABS, etc - but if you only have PLA - use a high infill (50% +) for strength.

On the sample photos, the flag was printed with Red filament and some color quickly added with an airbrush.

I have designed over 600 remixes of various types. If you want to search by the type, check the About section of my designs: https://www.thingiverse.com/toakamate/designs
