 **DAY 2 - 3D Printing on Textiles**
-I decided to print the snap design as per instructions in "How to 3D Print Onto Fabric" post from Instructables: http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-3D-Print-Onto-Fabric/. The files required for printing are bundled in a zip file downloadable from the same post. The design is comprised of a female piece and a male piece, and there are 3 snaps of each included in the stl files.

+**Settings**
+I used the same settings as in the post, even though I have used PLA filament instead of TPU. The print was quite good, the only problem was that unfortunately, the snaps didn't snap together. Maybe, due to the high temperature setting (normally I would use 190ºC for PLA filament), it is possible that the female pieces have slightly enlarged. However, to counteract this issue, I intend to scale the female pieces, to reduce to ~80%.
