Description
The hexagonal holes in the new Prusament spool aren't just for show — they're a canvas waiting to happen.
These small hexagonal pins are designed to snap snugly into the holes of the new Prusament spool, letting you create colorful pixel art patterns directly on the spool — just like HAMA/Perler beads, but 3D printed. Use any color filament you like, mix and match, and let your inner child go wild.
Each pin prints in about 3 minutes at 0.2 mm layer height with default settings. No supports needed. Print a handful in every color you have on the shelf — leftovers and scrap filament work perfectly for this.
The pins store perfectly in a Gridfinity bin — the bin shown in the photos is from the Gridfinity Ultra Light Bins (Plain Edition). A great pairing to keep your colors sorted and ready to go.
