Hi everyone, so recently I hit 10,000 subscribers on YouTube (now at 17,000+) and to celebrate this I wanted to get a bronze play button made via 3D printing since YouTube don't give anything for this milestone.
Just to clarify, i'm NOT wanting to make a knockoff silver play button, I want to commemorate the milestone by making a 1/4 Bronze version of the button, it's always been my thought that YouTube should send something for reaching this milestone be it a play button or a play button shaped pin badge and Bronze seems like a logical color as silver and gold follow, I know a lot of people do hit 10,000 and sending a button would make it very expensive and it's likely why they don't do one but I still feel it's a great accomplishment and one I would like to commemorate, I had asked my subs what they thought I should do and many of them had the same idea.
Because I want to make it as accurate as possible to the official awards I need to know the dimensions of the Silver Play Button so that I can scale it down for the bronze button, similar to how the silver button is a scaled down version of the gold button.
Any other information people can give about the button would really help as well, I know that its got a small bevel curve to it and that it has 2 holding mounts in the back of it to attach it to the board, also if you have any details regarding the actual case as well that would also be very helpful.
Thank you.
EDIT: Cleared up some confusion, hopefully
