Aperiodic Monotile with Color Inlay and Magnets for Bambu Labs Printer

Remix of begineering's awesome version of the Aperiodic Monotile optimized for two-color printing on the Bambu printer. Color is added as a 1-layer inlay on the bottom of each tile half, which prints super-smooth on the High Temperature Plate with no adhesive (completely clean).

Included 3mf file assumes .2mm layer height, 4mm nozzle, and 8mm x 2mm magnets (which are actually 8mm x 1.7mm btw)

Fusion 360 file is completely parametric; you can adjust overall size, layer height, nozzle width, and size of magnets to fit your particular needs.

Printing

Note: TheHatMagnet-BambuProject.3mf is a BambuStudio project that is configured to print out 6 tiles using the procedure described below:

Import model into BambuStudio; the model has multiple solid components, import them as a single object.

Use Assembly View to set the color of the main part of the model and/or the inlays. Use the darker of your two colors for the inlay.

Clone the model and mirror one of them in the X-axis. These will form the top and bottom half of the tile. Now mirror both of them in the Z-axis (so the magnet cavities are upwards). If you print on the High Temperature Plate with no adhesive (completely clean) the result will be a super-smooth finish on the tiles.

Duplicate the tile halves as many times as you like.

Print with standard settings except for the following changes:

Ironing : Topmost surface
Top/Bottom Surface Pattern: Concentric
Prime Tower: Disable

Assembly

Divide the prints into two piles (one for each mirror).

Flip one pile upside down (the bottom pile).

Insert magnets into locations in bottom half of tile. They should just press in.

Add small amount of CA glue to perimeter of tile.

Assemble with matching mirror tile and clamp.

PROTIP: Assemble subsequent tiles on top of the first tile; this will help you match magnet pole orientation so you can stack the tiles.
