A bunch of cool stuff here.
I have a Bambu lab P1S and no experience in designing prints. Just usually print stuff off makerworld or the Bambu lab site.
I have an image I would like to convert to a fender badge.
Any guidance on getting it from a jpeg to a 3d file for printing?

I believe there's an Inkscape to FreeCAD tutorial out there.

These two should get you there, but I can't find the one I used the first time I did it.

The basic steps are JPG to SVG, then import that into FreeCAD.

So that works really well. Inside the box are your running pc fans with a rubber hose out the bottom? I never thought to put something inside there as a while back I had a plan to mount my twin compressor inside there (ended up on molle panel on swing gate).

I should definitely look into that. Thanks for this post!

So I am using that specific Delta blower fan as it had the highest static pressure for a reasonable cost (~30 USD). There are definitely higher pressure blowers for similar form factor, but some might not be cheap. I am using the stock tire carrier mold to channel the air to the nozzle. For your setup, you can definitely take a more direct approach and design+print a duct instead. You have much less design restriction so you should get a better result as I am losing a lot of pressure from the stock tire carrier mold and the camera bracket housed inside.

I was able to get it to a svg, but the print came out flat and you couldn’t really tell the diff between the buckin bronco and the rider.
My wife’s bronco is called siren. Trying something like this to replace the badge.

You'll probably have to do it in sections and even using a smartphone app to isolate the mermaid/siren and then add that in as a separate SVG to 3D object would work. I'm busy today, but maybe next weekend I could help out if you haven't solved it yet.

Use something like this and overlay her or make several sections and sculpt it?
