I finally got multi-color working on my Creality K1 Max using the 3D Chameleon.
Decided to make a 2 color benchy and scaled it down to 75% to save time, along with 0.25mm layer height.
So far the Chameleon has been pretty picky with filament, but when it works it works well! This print is with silk gold and matte black. I have even gotten 95A TPU to print with it surprisingly!
I modified the color-change code so it takes 1 minute less, which makes a big difference when you have hundreds of color changes.
Next up, 4 color benchy. Probably will be 10 hrs lol
If you don’t mimd me asking, what practical use case for this is there? Like it’s cool but I just split the model up and print them separately and it seems like so much less of a pain
If you print with incompatible filaments (materials which don’t bond/adhere) you can get cheap, nearly perfect breakaway supports. I’ve done some rocket parts on my PrusaXL and it’s certifiably magic.
