Description

This 6-color layered swirly heart can be easily printed with a single AMS or no AMS at all!

 

If you are new to printing with more than four colors, here is the process. There is more detailed information in the attached pdf document.

  1. Select and assign colors to each tier. 
  2. Slice, then add pauses for color changes in the Preview Window (if you have one AMS, add a pause to the layer where Tier 5 first appears)
  3. Load first four filaments (starting with bottom) into the AMS. Start print. Assign Tiers 1-4 to AMS 1-4, then repeat the AMS slots (assign Tier 5 to AMS 1, Tier 6 to AMS 2).
  4. During pause, swap filaments and resume printing.

Tips:

  • The upper tiers of this print are thin, only 3 or so print layers each. Depending on the opacity of your filament, you may be able to see through to the next color. You can use this to great effect by planning the order of layers (Basic PLA Yellow over a Blue tier will have a greenish hue). Note that matte filaments are less “see through” than others. 
  • You can scale the print, but I recommend leaving the height, or Z-Value the same (100%). Otherwise the tiers can get too thick or thin.
