This is my coaster based on the ZX Spectrum game “Ant Attack”. It is a 2 colour print so only requires a single AMS.

I print my coasters with 100% infill, this gives them a solid feel and prevents the infill being visible when using filament that is quite translucent (e.g. Bambu PLA Basic Jade White).

Coasters are printed face down for a nicer finish. As the first layer contains a lot of fine detail it is important to have good build plate adhesion.

All coasters require at least one AMS. With two AMS, it's possible to print the entire ZX Spectrum colour palette although this does depend on the translucency of the filaments used. The 8 standard bright colours (Black, blue, red, magenta, green, cyan, yellow & white) are printed as 4 layers of that particular colour filament. The 7 darker colours are printed as 2 layers of the base colour on top of 2 layers of black (so grey is actually two layers of white on top of two layers of black).

I shall be releasing other ZX Spectrum themed coasters so please check the uploads on my profile for more!
