It looks great! How long did it take to print?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It took about 6 hours, but could have done with going a bit slower.

That looks super cool. Do you have to have a special kind of setup to do multiple filaments in one print like this? I've just ordered a printer so I've got zero experience and didn't even know stuff like this was possible

This was printed on a printer with dual extruders. It's a few years old now, there are some much better ones out there now if you look for multi material or dual extruder printers.

Can't believe I didn't think of that after all the frogs it's printed!

That looks great. Makes you wonder what would it be like if you had an idex or an ams..

I've been eying up the independent hot end versions. The results look fantastic!

Impressive! How much waste filament was there?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not too much really, just the full height skirt and purged on the infill.
