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

    I was definitely suspicious, but now that they’re partnering to create community firmwares, it feels like all that suspicion is unwarranted. I think people just couldn’t believe a printer could work so well (and of course there’s the xenophobia).

      After seeing CNC kitchens interview with the CEO I was convinced they weren’t trying to be evil. The guy seems incredibly genuine. I really suggest watching it, it is a really good interview and he asks plenty of hard questions that I wanted answers on.
