Howdy all,

I'm a full time IT specialists and part time designer. I bought the FFCP about two months ago and so far I'm getting the hang of things. I've been working with Fusion 360, Meshmixer, Slic3r and Yarrh. I'm considering purchasing Simplify3D but I'm not sure it's worth the money.

Dual color printing. I've started to work on some two color models, using some downloads to the hang of it but the prints are coming out looking like my extruders have a cold. The accuracy seems fine but it seems fine but from what I can see as they move back and forth material is still coming out of the extruder not being used. What I get is balled up material and hair sticking out in all directions. The technique I'm using to create the Gcode is first separating the shells in Meshmixer, exporting STL's for each color then I use the combine feature in ReplicatorG to create a single file. I'm using ABS so my settings are 40/70 speed, 230/210 temperature. The next thing I'll be trying is lower temperatures and different speeds. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
