Dale Earnhardt Jr 88 Multi-Color

My wife is a huge NASCAR fan and of course, her favorite driver is Dale Earnhardt Junior. Wanting to print her something NASCAR related, I searched Thingiverse and came across this 88 logo with stand. I decided to modify it to remove the stand (it stands nicely on it's own) and adjust it for multi-color printing (with a single extruder printer). Simply print the base (black) and leave it affixed to your heat bed. Load the color for the face (white), zero your Z axis to the top the of base and then load and slice the face. You may need to adjust your start code and/or edit your gcode after slicing to persuade your printer not to rezero the Z axis at the start of the print. You can also leave the heat bed disabled. Print and then repeat for the accent (red). It is easily scaled (just be sure to center each piece on the heat bed so they stack properly), about 10 cm wide at 100%. I hope my wife likes it!
