Flashforge Creator Pro side plugs in dual colors

cults3d

I remixed the original model to split into two parts so I could utilize the dual-extrusion wizard in Simplify3D. My first 2 attempts failed because auto-grouping was turned on (I tried to lift the top off the base and insert supports between them), and the second attempt failed due to the slicer creating double supports for the second model (it attempted to build supports for the letters that ran up through the base supports and base, which made a mess of plastic). The solution was to turn off aligning and grouping, and create my own supports in Tinkercad (made them 0.4mm wide and 0.1mm height below the item being supported). Here's the process I used in Simplify3D: Import the two models Align them manually on the x and y axes Start dual extrusion wizard: Pick your material (I chose ABS) Put parts aligned with the extruder/color you want to use UNCHECK align and group Hit OK, then edit process settings, then I changed the following settings: Turn on raft No supports Turn off ooze guard I also noted that the following were defaults (which I kept): ABS (I use 230C/110C heat settings for extruder/bed) Medium speed 20% infill Ok, then print!
