Description

This is a remix of the popular fidget cube. I have stacked them on top of each other with a small .2mm gap between them so this item can be used as a purge block when doing multi color prints that are a tad taller. this is designed to be printed with a .2 layer height. Once its printed use a tool or something to separate the two cubes from each other.

 

To use as a purge block

  1. Add stacked cube to plate that has a multicolor print on it
  2. Right click the cube and select “Flushing Options”
  3. Click “Flush into object”

Note: I prefer to print these with 2-3 walls with 10-15% infill. If your models your printing dont have these settings go to the “Objects” Tab in the Process section under your filaments. Select the fidget cube and change the Strength to 2-3 walls and 10-15% infill. This will ensure there is enough material in the cube to get a good purge so you are not wasting much materail at each change.

Good idea to use this as a purge model! I made a stack of 4 by adding a 0.2mm gap, just as described in another comment. They all came out fully working, but it was a bit tricky to separate them. The underside of the top 3 also was a bit tricky to clean up.

so you should be able to do it with any objects that have a flat top surface. when you merge the 2 together leave 1 layer width between the parts so .2 or so mm between them and voila flush stack

If you take this model into Studio, make a copy so you have two of them. Then assemble and use the cartesian movement arrows to center them on each other and move it up in Z to be .2 taller that the single block. This will give you a 4 stack.

The print was great but it was way to much work to separate. I could not separate them so a little annoying.
