Description

This model is for personal use only - V2 FRAME ONLY

Pimpington Bear is a venture back to a less complex color model. It took me a while to perfect that bling to get that sparkle illusion with only 4 colors. I sometimes forget that not everyone can print these crazy color models I have done because while it is doable without an AMS/MMU, it does require a lot of different filaments. This model will only be available to club members.

I have included two 3MF print profiles, one for AMS and one for NO AMS. This one is only 4 colors  so no crazy swap instructions this time. This is a fairly quick print at about 6.5 hours using my provided profiles. 

If you have any questions about printing this hit me up. 

Print at 100% infill with a layer height of 0.08mm with a base layer of 0.16mm. The profile has a height modifier to print the first 0.64mm @ 0.16 layer height as that is the min depth/non blended portion of the base color. If you use a different slicer set all your color changes before doing the modifier as it changes the amount of layers, or use the #mm value instead. This shaves off approximately half an hour of print time. 

DO NOT change the Z dimension. If you substitute filaments results will vary. If you have Hueforge you can import the STL and see how substituted filaments will change the outcome before printing.

I use the TD-1 to measure my filament opacity which is why you see the names I have assigned to them in Hueforge. This gives me an accurate prediction. Filament TD can vary from brand to brand and even from spool to spool. If you want to measure your own for accurate predictions in Hueforge check out MY WEBSITE where I have official TD-1 units for sale.
