    Anywhere in public is great. If you’re in a place where ICE is less active, you’ll want to package the whistles with instructions to alert the local rapid response hotline.

      I’ve seen whistles with the number for the local rapid response hotline printed right on them. Must have been one of those fancy multi-filament printers.

        You can do it with any 3D printer, as long as you orient the letters so they’re at the top of the print, you can insert a pause in the print job just before it starts the layers with the letters. Then you do a manual filament swap and resume the print.

        Another option is to print a QR code on them with a link to instructions/the organization.

        Do you have to prime 3d printed objects? If not, just print the number and like dip into water paint. Ideally you could print a lip with higher numbers so only the top of the numbers get painted
