This Blue Meanie is a tribute to Heinz Edelmann, the graphic designer behind the iconic art direction and character designs in the beloved movie Yellow Submarine. 1) Round, for single-extruder printers that excel at precise details - simply swap colors when the print reaches 65% completion. 2) Square, designed specifically for single-extruder printers - effortlessly switch to blue filament after reaching 65% of the print job. 3) Square, crafted with dual-extruder printers in mind - load "BlueMeanie-dualstrusion.thing" if you're equipped with a Makerbot Replicator 2x, FlashForge Creator, or a compatible printer that can handle complex prints. June 25, 2016 update: The latest version (V2) resolves the issue of non-manifold surfaces, ensuring a seamless printing experience. Print Settings Rafts: None required Supports: Not needed for this design Resolution: Set to 0.30 mm for exceptional detail and clarity Infill: Opt for 100% infill for a robust and solid print Notes: If you're using a single extruder, load the "single print" version and switch to blue filament after reaching 2mm in height - or go for the "no logo" version and change colors anytime after that.
