Can you direct me to a picture where you see the material.Quote

Question for you: What is the clay like material you put around the hot bits? I've been looking for something like that and haven't found anything that likes hot temperatuers.

do the filaments mix properly or do you get a toothpaste effect like richard's 3 way extruder ?

Ulkan,
I've used Autocrete- Hi-Temp Ceramic Adhesive when building my hot-end.
It worked very well.
I really like the tri-color hot-end. Great Job!
I am planning one for Raptosaur, and water cooling may work best.

Hi,
Your work is great and promising!
I see you only change the color by the Z axis. It is not possible to change the color on X-Y ? Are you already working at this stuff?

Yes you can build your own colour scheme. I used the basic red, yellow and blue(Not RGQuote

So, if you manage to mix two colors, do you get a new color if you are using three primary colors as base filament? That way it theoretically *should* be possible to output RGB values.

Printing with 3 primary colours, an RGB printer in effect, would in theory allow sophisticated multi coloured art work or lettering to be incorporated within the print if the software was capable of it. This would be a game changer.
Xabbax, after your earlier post I started to source the bits to make a hotend myself. I have not got very far yet. It is a fairly complicated assembly that needs to be silver soldered together. Any plans to sell them? or as garyhlucas suggested getting a version metal printed that you can mass produce and put on the market?
Does having 5 tubes going into the hotend present any particular problems? Did you need to beef up the motors or slow the print down?

You need the secondary colours, i.e. cyan, magenta and yellow when mixing pigments that absorb and reflect light as they are subtractive. The primary colours are used for processes where the colours add.

I think you confuse me with RichRap. I have never done any colour mixing since mixing paints at school!

you would also need black and white filaments for color mixing to create the proper shade.
