Chess-checkers Board - toolpath painting

Description

Make A Beautiful Chess Board Using __Toolpath Painting__ To Add Patterns Into The 1St Layer Of The Print. I Am Playing With The Concept Of Using The Toolpath To Add Details To The Finished Model, And I Am Calling That "Toolpath Painting". You Can Add Details Inside A Solid Colored Area With This Technique. I Have Shared The Openscad Code So You Can Easily Change The Patterns And Dimensions Of The Board. If The Files I Have Shared Don'T Fit Your Print Bed Then Use Openscad And The Video Tutorial To Make Your Own Files. I Have Also Included 3 Sets Of Stl Files: 1. Test Print. These Are The 3 Files With Names Starting With "Test_Layer1Is0.5Mm_Xxx.Stl". Please Scale These Files In The Z Direction Only, You Want Only A Single Layer Print. As The Name Suggests These Files Are 0.5Mm In The Z Direction If That Is The Height Of Your 1St Layer No Scaling Needed. These Files Form A 2X4 Grid With Stars Ranging From 3-Points To 10-Points. Use These If You Want To Test Your Slicer Settings And Pla Colors. These Is No Body Or Backing File, These Are Only A Single Layer. 2. Chess Board For 0.8Mm Nozzle. These Are The 9 Files With Names Starting With "Layer1Is0.6Mm_Noz8_Xxx.Stl". These Files Form A 4X4 Grid With 8-Point Stars, Your Bed Will Need To Fit A 185.2X185.2Mm Object To Print These. You Should Use A 0.6Mm 1St Layer Height In Your Slicer. (See Video And Printer Setting Area For Printing Details) 3. Chess Board For 0.4Mm Nozzle. These Are The 9 Files With Names Starting With "Layer1Is0.3Mm_Noz4_Xxx.Stl". These Files Form A 4X4 Grid With 8-Point Stars, Your Bed Will Need To Fit A 185.2X185.2Mm Object To Print These.
