Comment on Why prime tower instead of poop?
Blue_Morpho@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoThe prime tower probably could be much smaller. Its size is mainly structural so that on a tall print it stays stable. But the poop tray on the U1 is pretty small. I could see it needing to be emptied after every large multi color print if it primed into the poop tray.

I suppose that makes sense. I almost entirely print short things, and when I do taller prints, it’s always single colour because it’s a functional piece.
I’m not interested in giant 3D print display art, personally, so I’ve never run into that challenge. Hell, I set my prime tower brims to 0 just to make it easier to get off the plate.
