Widgets variations:

  • 6–4–2–1"
  • 5–3–1–0.5"
  • 3–2–1" 

Two versions are included, one plain and one with our wargaming club logo.

 

These models are prepared for easy two-color printing with only one extruder, no MMU or multi-nozzle setup required.

Printer setup

  • In Printer Settings → General, enable Single Extruder Multi Material.
  • In Printer Settings → Custom G-code, make sure you have the following line under Tool change G-code:
M600 ; pause for manual filament change
  • The Wipe Tower can be enabled or disabled depending on your preference:
    • Enabled: helps purge leftover filament automatically, but uses more material.
    • Disabled: lets you purge manually and save filament, ideal for small color changes or flat inlays.

Print procedure

  • Slice both color parts as separate objects assigned to different “tools” (for example, Tool 0 = color 1, Tool 1 = color 2).
  • When the printer reaches the color change, it will pause automatically and let you swap filament manually.
  • Purge the old color and load the new one. You can extrude a little by hand to clean the nozzle.
  • Resume the print to continue with the next color.
  • Check for any stringing or brim before starting the next stage.
