Go Gopher

# Go Gopher Original design by Renée French. Vector files are available at https://github.com/golang-samples/gopher-vector. I designed this model to print on my Ender 2 using only manual filament juggling techniques. Each model has a "strut" that allows loading them in Slic3r at the correct height. Scale down, perhaps to 25%. - grey.stl is the base in light grey. - blue.stl is the body. - yellow.stl are the paws and cheeks. - white.stl are the teeth and whites of the eyes. - black.stl are the contours and all black bits. Set up in Slic3r as if you had multiple extruders (see screenshot). In the exported gcode, T lines change the material. For example, if grey is set to extruder 1, T0 means a switch to grey plastic. Add M600 command after each T command and change the plastics. Load each color only once. Important: If you use OctoPi, ensure that M600 is in the list of long-running commands and that the amount of retries for long-running commands is set to an exorbitant number (the default is 5, which allows for only 2.5 minutes). Otherwise, OctoPi will think your printer has died while purging colors.
