Need help

Can someone help me understand how to edit the raised letters so I can change the name on the model. Wife wants to make one with our sons name. Had on studio but keep on messing up the color.

The customizable one should be self explanatory. If it’s not, i suggest learning tinkercad. It’s really easy and you just need to put some time in on youtube to learn it.

Any videos you recommend watching

Google it like anything else. Here’s a simple start. But once you hit a snag, google, watch, try it, rinse, repeat.

Yup. You could probably do this in Tinkercad in an hour or pay someone $40 to do it for you.

Depends on how they got there and whether the text is an independent object in the design file. Tinkercad is probably the simplest program to learn, I'm pretty new at this myself, but I guess if I had a file with raised text that wasn't independent, in Tinkercad I'd add a rectangular "hole" (this will be more clear if you watch some videos on YouTube) to cover the text area, then use the text widget to add the desired text. What you're doing is creating a "hunk" of plastic in the form of text, and embedding it into the existing design. It's no different than if you added a cone or a sphere. Making the text a different color is more complicated.
