Anybody got any tips on what to print, i’m curious to see it.

I weighed it and it’s about 15/16 gram, but my x1c also uses up some filament before it starts printing.

    Anything with a lot of sharp angles should show it off pretty well. You could try making one of the geometric vases since they don’t use much filament being that they’re single walled.

      Alternatively, something with a generally round or cylindrical shape will also show off a smooth transition between colors as you turn it around the Z axis.

    Is it the color shifting filament, or coextruded type? I’ve used coextruded red-yellow-blue that looks really great when the prints were done. The three blend as they melt, so you get a rainbow effect of red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple that shifts as you turn the finished piece. Anyway, for a short length of filament like you have, try doing a standard test print like a benchy or any small figure. Even if you end up short of filament to finish, you’ll have an idea of how the filament will look if you end up buying a roll.
