Description

This is a quick, untested revision of SilasPfeifer's dual color extruder piece. I like the Prometheus concept for dual color as a single hot end is easier to tune and use. The difference on this one is that on the end where the two filament colors come in, I enlarged the feed tubes to allow the bowden teflon tubing to extend through the connectors and all the way down to the intersection of the "Y". I did this because I think the filament will be hot when a color is retracted and I wanted it to sit in teflon instead of against the printed plastic where I think it could stick.

I plan to test this once I finish up building my second printer (a CoreXY based design of my own).

What do you think??
