<p>I really liked <a href="https://www.prusaprinters.org/social/50124-thomas-h">Thomas H.</a> <a href="https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/69603-split-flap-counter-fully-printable">design</a>, and since I have a Multi-Material printer I didn't do the colour changing method, instead I used the Multi-Material painting feature on PrusaSlicer.</p><p>That printed nicely, leaving the parts with multiple colours without the usual colour change on the sides.</p><figure class="image"><img src="https://media.prusaprinters.org/media/prints/133058/rich_content/63cb5e3a-8d33-462e-851d-07f2343d080a/untitled-1.png#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%22d32b6437-a8ed-4c7f-9751-8ba71a858a54%22%2C%22w%22%3A1993%2C%22h%22%3A734%7D"></figure><p><i>↳ Colour change feature (Left) vs Multi-Material painting feature (Right) </i></p><p> </p><p>However, since the model was designed for the colour change method, i.e. having the number appear at a different layer height, that meant that there was a gap when printing the number on the bottom (0.2mm) and that layer wouldn't end up very pretty.</p><figure class="image"><img src="https://media.prusaprinters.org/media/prints/133058/rich_content/6ae56418-212e-49d8-b980-3d7dd2a7aee8/img_20220212_201051.jpg#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%22802ad2e9-3753-4601-baee-b98ea5b972d3%22%2C%22w%22%3A4000%2C%22h%22%3A1800%7D"></figure><p><i>↳ Original model with 0.2mm gap (Left) vs Multi-Material model without gap (Right)</i></p><p>In order to avoid that I remixed the flaps part.</p><p> </p><h3>Changes</h3><ul><li>Removed the gap (0.2mm) - Better first layer, no longer possible normal colour change</li><li>Separated the numbers from the flaps as new objects - Possibility to add different colours to objects on Multi-Material mode.</li></ul><p> </p><h3>Credits</h3><p><a href="https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/69603-split-flap-counter-fully-printable">Split-flap counter - Fully printable</a> by <a href="https://www.prusaprinters.org/social/50124-thomas-h">Thomas H.</a></p>
