Since this is my final model in my "Single Extruder - Dual Color" series where I managed to put 3 colors together into one model! Not counting the optional basket and cushion that would make it 5 colors.
The colors are mere suggestions, so I would like to see your space-cats, neon-cats and spooky glow in the dark cats! Just print every part in a different color and slide them together carefully.
My advised resolution would be 0,2mm, as given in the print profiles. I added thee print profiles:
Full AMS - only 2 plates for A1 and up
Full no AMS - 5 plates, one plate per color. You can discard the cushion and basket if you only want the cat
Quick cat - Scaled down to 93% so the cat fits on one plate with AMS (A1 and up). Tolerances are slightly tighter though (see below).
The first time you slide them together they might be a little tight. If so, use a bit of PTFE/teflon spray. Also, slide them up and down, going lower bit by bit to ‘sand’ the rough edges and you will be able to take the model apart again. I have also added a hole in the bottom to create a central pressure point for disassembly if necessary. But as shown in the GIF, the cat could be completely friction free with the right printer and print settings.
And as always, if you like my models, don't forget to follow me!
Happy Printing :)
