Super Mario Coasters - Same Layer Multicolour (Single Extruder)

prusaprinters

During experimenting with multicolour printing on one layer with a single extruder I produced these select range of Super Mario coasters.Still slightly temperamental to print but a great challenge, a great way to learn and the result is definitely worth it! To Print (Mario Example)Load the coloured parts into Cura and rotate them 180 degrees around the Y axisThen do the same with the black part and use it to align all the coloured partsThis will result with your model laying face down on the build plateOnce all the parts are lined up correctly, ensure an adequate Z hop is enabled so that the extruder can hop over the already printed parts. Then systematically delete parts leaving a single part and save it to its own gcodeDo this for all partsNow you are ready to printThe coloured parts can be printed in any order but ensure you print the black part lastMake sure to leave each coloured part on the print bed before starting the next, and hopefully watch the next part magically jump around the printed part filling in the gaps with the next colour!If you need any advice on printing please let me know in the comments.
