Thanks very much for the feedback. As mentioned in the video, this wasn't my idea but I think this method is a bit easier than some others I have seen.
That is an interesting point I hadn't considered as the objects in my video were simply placed so the bed levelling could still happen without banging into the prints. However, your slicer probably has a section for custom gcode at the start of your print and you can comment out the code to do the levelling. For a Prusa, I believe if you comment out the G80 (by preceding it with a ; ) in PrusaSclicer it will disable levelling but I haven't tried it . I see that some printers might use a different code so you might need to google. Also you could manually combine the two files into one in a text editor by removing the ending code of the first file and the starting code of the second but you would need to know what you're doing. I found this software that MIGHT help though I have never tried it github.com/rara64/gcombiner
@@notverygoodguy Thanks for your answer, I tried with the g80 command as you recommended but since there is no initial calibration the extruder starts in a very high position, I will try with the program to combine that you sent me, thanks again for your time
@@c3sierra Yes, I didn't think of that because the printer does a home after a print so you would probably need to add the code to move the head to layer 2 first as well. I would be interested to hear if that software works though.
"there might be a better way to do this" yeah upgrade to 2.4. lol I keep hoping I can find a tutorial to export a single object with multiple shaders into prusaslicer and have it pick up multi-material painting on object automatically.
Nice to see this done using PrusaSlicer.
Glad you like it!
Been printing for a long time and never knew this. You have a new subscriber! Thank you!

Great video, could you tell me how I avoid self-leveling when starting the printing of the second part?, thanks

It will happen.
