this system uses two extruders: one direct drive (stock) and one bowden (bolted to the side). this is apparently important for something

doesn't blob on tool change, doesn't jam too often, uses a complicated system of gcode macros to track the state of material multiplexing unit so that the slicer can issue a single command and have it ready (other than purging), requires only a few screws and a pneumatic fitting to assemble

check out this lighthouse she made!!!

(for some reason PrusaSlicer divides by zero if she tries to make a normal multi-material object, and a lighthouse was the obvious candidate for manually inserting material switches between layers)

a palm-sized 3d printed lighthouse (very basic, just the overall shape and color without any detail), still on the build plate. it is white with three wide orange stripes; very lighthousey. the object looks completely seamless
close-up of the middle part of the lighthouse. layers are visible. they are completely uniform and the color change is seamless. so smooth you kind of want to taste it
