Printing Alot More

I've got a time lapse for you:
If I do any more replicator or 3D printing videos it will probably be that youtube channel so subscribe if you'd like more. I don't know if I have time to do very much of this sort of thing, but if I do it'll be there. And here.

I'm not reporting on every success or failure any more. Mostly because I've lost count and I don't want to bore anyone. So I'm only going to report on interesting things and this is interesting, alot.

This alot is interesting because it's not parts printed seperately and assembled, it's printed all at once using the dual extruder, and it was... mildly successful. Funny thing, the white on the tooth didn't take for a few layers. I figure it's because the white wasn't doing anything for so long there while the black printed all the layers before it that when it came to be white's turn it needed a little lead in time. I've been pondering how to give it that lead in time. Either I could print a useless tube next to the alot so that the white is printing the whole time or I could have it start a few layers below the beginning of the tooth with a little white shape hidden inside the alot where no one will see it. Like a little heart.

Yes, I think my next alot will have a little heart.
