I’m not CNC Kitchen, so I won’t be doing anything with it.

@GrayBackgroundMusic melt it down in silicone molds. That’s what I do.

What’s annoying is that it doesn’t HAVE to purge. I’ve experimented with changing the filament manually without pausing and the results are good.

Ok, then I’m confused. Per Teaching Tech’s description, a certain amount of purge is necessary. I’ve no personal experience with it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3ZIM3megIU

That’s interesting, the Bambu slicer actually does let you control how much, if at all, you purge during switches - I might try just setting it to 0 and seeing what I end up with…

I think the intention is for it to have deep grooves and lines like that to mimic a wood texture. But to us it just looks like big bad layer lines

supposed to

I don’t understand this. Who is supposed to do anything in this hobby? If you wanna print in gray and then paint, go for it. If you wanna print in multicolor, go for it.

You know. To avoid the waste. As pictured.

Obviously art is art.

There are other ways of avoiding waste and given that it was Stefan promoting you can bet this is to prove a point about the X1.

They should be purging on infill instead of the poop method

A good painter will always create a better job but that also requires time and talent that you might not have.
