Blue-ringed Octopus tool holder
Description
The blue-ringed octopus model pushes the edge of multicolor printing and it's a great example of the INDX capabilities.
Once printed, it can hold all the tools that came with the printer and a benchy in its tentacles.
The model is designed and painted for the Prusa CORE One+ INDX 8T-version . Pairs of similar color shades (a blue and a brown pair of colors) are used to give it a more realistic look. Triangle painting tool in PrusaSlicer is used to break large uniform surfaces. Both of these tricks help with making the model look less like "just a piece of plastic".
We used the following Prusament PLA filaments for our sample print:
- T1 Prusament Premium PLA Mystic Brown
- T2 Prusament PLA Blend Royal Blue
- T3 Prusament PLA Blend Viva La Bronze
- T4 Prusament PLA Galaxy Silver
- T5 Prusament PLA Vanilla White
- T6 Prusament PLA Noctua Brown
- T7 Buddy3D PLA Silk Ice Blue
- T8 Prusament PLA Prusa Galaxy Black
We recommend printing the model without supports, at 0.15 mm layer height .
