Vertically Striped Business Card Holder

Vertically Striped Business Card Holder

Description

Adding color can make a good thing look great! Your thing can have different color layers/stripes by using filament changes on a single-extruder printer. Usually, those colors are horizontally orientated. But, your thing can have vertical multicolor layers/stripes if it can be printed on its side, 90° rotation. This business card holder is an example that helps demonstrate the process and output. Because it's already designed to print on its side, I didn't need to rotate it. I just added the 8 filament changes in my slicer, started printing, and then swapped filament (colors) when prompted. If I printed this one again, I would add a brim (maybe 5 mm) to improve bed adhesion and reduce wobbly vibrations at the top of the build. To learn more about multicolor printing using filament changes, see my [Design: Multicolor Filament Collection](https://www.thingiverse.com/antonaccid/collections/design-multicolor-using-filament-change).
