⚙️ Optimized Print Settings

This profile is fully dialed in for a standard 0.4mm nozzle using PLA filament to guarantee a smooth surface finish.

• Layer Height: 0.20mm Standard (Initial layer: 0.20mm for optimal first-layer bonding).
• Infill: 5% Density using the Grid pattern. Because the design is ultra-thin, the slicer automatically processes most of the model as solid top and bottom shells, giving it excellent structural durability.
• Build Plate: Works on any flat build plate (Textured PEI recommended). No brim, rafts, or supports are required since the entire model sits completely flat.
• Purge Control & Prime Tower: A small 35mm Prime Tower is enabled in this profile. This ensures crisp, sharp boundaries between your two alternating colors by clearing the nozzle during filament swaps and preventing any color bleeding.

🛠️ Printing Instructions

1. Load Filament: Place your two chosen contrasting PLA colors into your multi-material system or prepare for a manual filament swap.
2. Prep the Bed: Make sure your build plate is clean and free of oils or fingerprints to ensure perfect first-layer adhesion.
3. Slice & Print: Slice the file in your preferred software to confirm the color layout in the preview tab, then send the job directly to your printer!
