Death Star Trench Run - HueForge Hybrid
Adding to my Star Wars HueForge Hybrids, here's the iconic scene of the trench run through the Death Star! This print is completely Print-In-Place :)
All necessary settings have been applied in the 3MF file, if you're using Bambu Studio/Bambu slicer. If you are not using either, please download the STL and follow the instructions below very carefully:
IMPORTANT NOTE:
- If you are having issues slicing the main profile, please try the ‘Non-Arachne Walls (Alternative)’ 3MF profile. I have not had any issues slicing but some have reported Bambu Slicer stalling at 15%. I am using Bambu Studio 1.8.4.51 and have no issues, so if you do, maybe update the slicer, or try the alternative print profile!
- Use a layer height modifier in the slicer to achieve these split settings
- The tops of the X-Wing's spindles (35mm and above) are really thin and skinny. Please ensure your settings have been adjusted for this. I slowed down speed, and increased layer time within my filament settings to ensure the printer can handle the skinny print.
- As with all HueForge prints, an AMS is NOT needed, but highly recommended. If you don't have an AMS, just manually insert a pause at the layers below, and swap out your filament spools to the right colour :)
Print Instructions: For the HueForge part (0mm - 2.12mm) Print at 100% infill with a layer height of 0.08mm with a base layer of 0.2mm
For the X-Wing (2.12mm - 110mm) Print at 5% infill (Gyroid), with a layer height of 0.16mm I used 2 walls, 3 surfaces, amd 3 bottoms.
Filaments Used:
- PLA Kingroon Black Transmission Distance: 0.4
- PLA+ eSun Grey Transmission Distance: 1.4
- PLA Overture Light Grey Transmission Distance: 1.6 (also for the X Wing!)
- PLA Default White Transmission Distance: 5
- PLA BambuLab Basic BambuLab Green Transmission Distance: 8

- At layer #10 (0.92mm) swap to Light Grey

- At layer #16 (1.4mm) swap to BambuLab Green
- At layer #24 (2.04mm) swap to Light Grey for the rest (The X Wing!)
