Feature Request - Adding to a print.

I have run into a use case where I really wish this feature existed. I have pile of identical parts that I have previously printed. I need to add a custom logo to the part. Currently, I would either have to reprint completely or print the logo separately and basically super glue it on.

What if there was someway to print directly on the stack of parts I already have. There would be a few caveats but If I could get the part to stick back to the bed then it should be just a matter of using the bed sensor to detect the edges, level and z-offset. Yes or no? Is there away to currently do this that I am just not aware of.

RE: Feature Request - Adding to a print.

Use the modifier capability and just add the logo stl to the existing part.

 

Wait - that won't work to add to EXISTING parts.  No - sorry.  Once parts are off the printer you are pretty much out of luck.
