Gregs Maker Corner | Hands on with the Palette 2 @GregsMakerCorner | Uploaded June 2019 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
Here is a video of my first impressions of the Palette 2, while doing my first print.
The Palette 2 allows you to do multi color (and material) prints. It cuts and splices filament together, which is then fed in to your printer. In this video, I am printing on an original Prusa mk3, but the Palette 2 should work with just about any modern 3d printer.
So farl, I think it's really nice! It seems to work very well and I didn't have any real problems (aside from using the wrong filament combo for my first print, which I talk about in the video). It only took me a few hours to get it set up, and about half that time was figuring out where I wanted to put my printer.
I mention a few things in the video:
1) Here is a link to the driver that I needed to install on my PC, in order to get the firmware to update.
