 The plastic waste problem is only going to worsen if everyone adopts multi-color printing, accessible at lower and lower price-points. The filament should be purged into a useful object (or a long 1.75mm diameter cylinder), not into a useless tower or box of squiggles. Let’s work on that! #3dprinting

 @f7020166 This is why I refuse to get a single-nozzle multi-color print solution, whether it be Bambu, MMU, Chameleon 3D, etc. I just can't justify the waste or figure out how to make use of the purge in another model, etc. (I usually print precisely what I need, no more.)

That said, I can still do neat multi-color stuff. I'm just constrained to layer swaps or just multiple colors on the print bed.-color
