I finally got multi-color working on my Creality K1 Max using the 3D Chameleon.

Decided to make a 2 color benchy and scaled it down to 75% to save time, along with 0.25mm layer height.

So far the Chameleon has been pretty picky with filament, but when it works it works well! This print is with silk gold and matte black. I have even gotten 95A TPU to print with it surprisingly!

I modified the color-change code so it takes 1 minute less, which makes a big difference when you have hundreds of color changes.

Next up, 4 color benchy. Probably will be 10 hrs lol

    Four hours? That seems awfully slow. You say you’re printing this for your store? I would think you’d want to get a Bambu A1.

        1min30sec for every color change. Multiply that by hundreds of color changes and it adds up!

        I am starting to see why people usually print whole plates full of multicolor prints. It’s the same amount of color changes, but more way more efficient.
