Don't have a 3D printer?

No problem — there's likely a public-library makerspace near you with a 3D printer. Many let you use the machines free with a library card; you just pay for materials.

Free Text Flip Generator

Two names, one 3D print — each reads from its own angle. Exports STL for any FDM slicer. No signup.

About the Text Flip Generator

A text flip (sometimes called a dual-name flip or 3D ambigram) is a single 3D-printed object that reads as one word from the front and a different word from the side. Type two names, adjust the letter height, watch the live 3D preview rotate, and export a binary STL ready for Bambu Studio, Cura, PrusaSlicer, OrcaSlicer, or any FDM slicer — entirely in your browser, with no signup.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a text flip?

A text flip (sometimes called a dual-name flip or 3D ambigram) is a single 3D-printed object that reads as one word from the front and a different word from the side. The geometry is the intersection of two extruded text shapes — when you look straight at it from one axis you see only the first name, and from the perpendicular axis you see only the second.

What does the STL export contain?

A single solid mesh with the voxel-intersection geometry of both names. No supports needed for short letters; tall letterforms with sharp overhangs may benefit from tree supports in your slicer. Open the file in Cura, PrusaSlicer, Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer, or any STL-capable slicer.

What names work best?

Short names (3–6 letters) print fastest and read most clearly. Letters with strong vertical strokes (M, H, K, T, L) intersect cleanly; letters with thin diagonals or curves (X, S) may produce delicate sections that benefit from a slight scale-up. Both names should have similar character counts to keep the silhouette balanced.

Do I need to create an account?

No. The Text Flip Generator runs entirely in your browser. No sign-up, no tracking — your designs stay on your device.
