Galaga Ship - Retro 80's Gaming Icon

pinshape

Summary I designed and printed this Galaga ship to be used with the print stop and change technique. Below is the code which you should add to the post-processing part of your slicer settings. It will allow the printer to pause, hold the temps and let you change the filament. I also added some "Boosters" to tidy up the back end of the ship. Dimensions are 112 x 120 x 12. Pics are printed at 120%. Cool addition to a Retro Arcade game collection! Keep Printing! Print Settings Printer Brand: Creality Printer: CR-10 Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: 0.2 Infill: 10 Notes: Don't knock you z-axis too hard when changing the filament as it can cause issues for you. Remember to purge out one colour before starting the next. If you are worried about adhesion when staring the new, baby step it down slightly, then back up on layer 2. Follow this video for more information on how to use the code below if you are not familiar with changing the layers. Its very simple to do. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFzlJB0XbNE ;Filament change code below. Specify layer to swap filament.
