Weird. Who thinks it’d be a good idea to extrude 2 colors at once? I mean, what sort of maniac would want to put brain-melting effort into extruding a filament that is half one-color, and half the other?! That’s like.. extruding two flavors of ice-cream at the same ti… waitaminute – I think I know where eSun got the idea for their ePLA Silk-Magic dual-color filament!

It’s pretty impressive actually. You’d think that a split-color filament would schmoosh together in the nozzle, but the viscosity of the plastic just makes it get thinner, just like how candy-makers pull candy-canes into multi-colored strands. The end result is that your printed model changes color depending on how it’s rotated. It’s really a surreal effect.
