Printrbot Octoprint Wi-Fi-Pi camera case front for dual extruder

thingiverse

I design replacement front pieces for printers that include Printrbot logos specifically for dual-extruder machines like my trusty Printrbot Plus! A small smudge of stray filament around the black filament tip led to that pink circle surrounding the "p", but fear not, you probably won't have this issue if you're a bit more skilled. This is an entire DIY effort; huge props to barneyj for crafting the original concept! Instructions My very first dual-extrusion prints turned out fairly well, considering they were some of my very first prints using this printer altogether. Post-print, I stumbled upon Slic3r's fantastic Ooze Prevention feature – seriously worth implementing for any and all dual extrusion projects! Right now, I use a Mac running Slic3r 1.1.7 alongside Repetier 0.56 when I'm not experimenting with OctoPrint instead. Printing specifics included an impressively low layer height of .2937, plus three sturdy shells, as well as a robust 20% rectilinear infill pattern for those who like numbers and precision; my logic being that dual-extrusion masters out there won't have trouble figuring out their perfect print settings, but I'd still be happy to offer advice or tips in the comments!
