Death Star Trench Run - HueForge Hybrid

Adding to my Star Wars HueForge Hybrids, here's the iconic scene of the trench run through the Death Star! This print is completely Print-In-Place :)

All necessary settings have been applied in the 3MF file, if you're using Bambu Studio/Bambu slicer. If you are not using either, please download the STL and follow the instructions below very carefully:

IMPORTANT NOTE:

1. If you are having issues slicing the main profile, please try the ‘Non-Arachne Walls (Alternative)’ 3MF profile. I have not had any issues slicing but some have reported Bambu Slicer stalling at 15%. I am using Bambu Studio 1.8.4.51 and have no issues, so if you do, maybe update the slicer, or try the alternative print profile!
2. Use a layer height modifier in the slicer to achieve these split settings
3. The tops of the X-Wing's spindles (35mm and above) are really thin and skinny. Please ensure your settings have been adjusted for this. I slowed down speed, and increased layer time within my filament settings to ensure the printer can handle the skinny print.
4. As with all HueForge prints, an AMS is NOT needed, but highly recommended. If you don't have an AMS, just manually insert a pause at the layers below, and swap out your filament spools to the right colour :)

Print Instructions: For the HueForge part (0mm - 2.12mm) Print at 100% infill with a layer height of 0.08mm with a base layer of 0.2mm

For the X-Wing (2.12mm - 110mm) Print at 5% infill (Gyroid), with a layer height of 0.16mm I used 2 walls, 3 surfaces, amd 3 bottoms.

Filaments Used:

• PLA Kingroon Black Transmission Distance: 0.4
• PLA+ eSun Grey Transmission Distance: 1.4
• PLA Overture Light Grey Transmission Distance: 1.6 (also for the X Wing!)
• PLA Default White Transmission Distance: 5
• PLA BambuLab Basic BambuLab Green Transmission Distance: 8

Swap Instructions:

• Start with Black
• At layer #5 (0.52mm) swap to Grey
• At layer #10 (0.92mm) swap to Light Grey
• At layer #15(1.32mm) swap to White
• At layer #16 (1.4mm) swap to BambuLab Green
• At layer #24 (2.04mm) swap to Light Grey for the rest (The X Wing!)
