In this video I show an efficient way on how to use Cura to prepare a single (!) STL Model for multiple Color or Material 3D Printing.
No Meshmixer involved, nor do we need to wait for layer changes.
Printer used: Geeetech A20t with 3 Extruders, 1 Nozzle.
Print settings: .4 nozzle, .24 layer height with adaptive layers (+/-.08), PLA, Prime tower.
EDIT: Cura 4.6 just came out a day after I shot this video and changed the Option "Only Infill" to a drop down menu. If you are using this version or higher, chose "Cutting Mesh" for your Support Blockers / Color Geometries.
