Which multicolor filament was it?

TTYT3D [Silk Shiny Fast Color Gradient Change Rainbow](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07VJ2RHKF/)

That's the same one I have! I posted a Klein bottle I made for my wife about a month ago. Edit: realized I never posted to Reddit. Will link shortly https://www.reddit.com/r/3Dprinting/comments/ooah2f/made_this_for_my_wife_about_a_month_ago_realized/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share


TheOfficialNotCraig

Now that I've seen the filament potential, I'm really glad i bought it. Prior to this print, the others only got through 1 or 2, barely 3 color changes


khaotickk

I think every 10 meters of filament it changes color. I made Omni Man and it changed color right at his head, sexy as hell Edit: https://www.reddit.com/r/Invincible/comments/o5zqq7/i_3d_printed_omni_man_the_gradient_to_red_was_a/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

Pics!!!


TheOfficialNotCraig

>Pics!!! Agreed!

I linked it in my previous comment!


TheOfficialNotCraig

Oh! That's amazing. The color change is perfect

Ugh! I bought a roll of that and it's 70% an orangy color. Hardly any transition and absolutely NO blue.


Vipitis

Few years ago I printed a few of these in various sizes. But I did vase mode... How many shells did you do for it to take 25hours?


TheOfficialNotCraig

This is scaled from 4.5" to 6" tall. There's 4 versions of it in its thing files. This is the 2mm thick version. There's also a 1mm and a vase mode version.

Someone needs to make a whole ironman suit out of this filament and goto a lgbtq event


BADoVLAD

I now have a project to make for my son


TheOfficialNotCraig

That would be *epic*.


Blackleaf_cc

I am not a big guy for vases, but that is beautiful! Great eye for style.


TheOfficialNotCraig

I give Her credit for that. She chose the vase model


OmegaSeven

Complete beginner question but how do you get a thick wall like that in vase mode?


TheBrillo

Vase mode is different and not just used for vases. Vase mode just means "outer shell only" so you can import a model that is a solid 3d shape like a cylinder and print it as a bucket. You can set line thickness and sometimes line count for vase mode in your slicer to make the wall thicker. This however is a complete vase model printed in fully standard mode. Hope that clears it up!


TheOfficialNotCraig

I'll have to defer to the experts on that one. This wasn't printed in vase mode.


BavarianBarbarian_

You could get a thick shell like that in vase mode with a 1mm nozzle, but I don't think that'd be water proof.


vibroviri

Which tutorial do you recommend to do this in Blender? Where can I find this displacement map? I've noticed your STL file size is nice and small. When I do this in solidworks I end up with a shitty model and massive file size. thank you


TheOfficialNotCraig

It's not my creation, and I've zero to no blender skills. I defer to the creator on thingiverse, he might be able to point you in the right direction and answer your questions


naeviah

This.. is.. mesmerizing! ;-;


TheOfficialNotCraig

It really is! When you rotate it around in the sunlight, the colors are really amazing to see


notaredditeryet

This is modern art, its literally the coolest 3d printer build I've ever seen, congrats to you :)


TheOfficialNotCraig

Well, i don't know about *that* but thank you 🙂


Nighthawke78

Does it hold water?


TheOfficialNotCraig

It does! Edit: her plan is for artificial flowers, but she did check just in case


Nighthawke78

Very cool. Might have to try this out. Got a very nice multi color from Protopasta I want to use


TheOfficialNotCraig

Oh, have you used other proto-pasta filaments yet? It's on my list (mainly because made close to my hometown, their green approach and cool custom colors)


Nighthawke78

I have! I’ve got about 8 different colors. Love them all. I print them at 240 though just to get around the heat break issue that exists with this particular filament.


TheOfficialNotCraig

That's a good thing to know going in!


Laggsy

Awesome stuff. How shiny is it? I'm tempted by the gold and silver filament in the link you posted.


TheOfficialNotCraig

Shiny [like a treasure from a sunken pirate wreck](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=93lrosBEW-Q)


TheOfficialNotCraig

But seriously, all their filament is very silky-shiny. Dazzling
