Notre Dame Stained Glass

This model recreates the west rose window of the Notre-Dame cathedral in Paris as a printable stained glass-style decoration. Place it directly on a window glass or use it as a hanging ornament ✨

• 3MF file: Easy to print and color with multicolor printers (MMU or AMS) but also works with single extruder printers in multiple colors! 🎨 Optimized for PrusaSlicer.

Materials and Printing Tips

You can print the design using any colors you prefer. The “glass” parts are only 0.2 - 0.4 mm and at this thickness any filament becomes translucent. Combine regular filament and transparent filament to get even more contrast.

• Printing Time: Approximately 2 hours
• Ease of Printing: The design is straightforward to print, even for beginners
• Low waste: Great for using up leftover filament ♻

How to Use

You can watch our video on how to print stained glass here

1. If you have AMS or MMU you can print multicolor as usual but set the Elephant foot compensation to zero otherwise you could have gaps in the model. Use the provided 3MF file.
   
    
2. If you only have a single extruder printer this model takes advantage of the Single Extruder Multi Material setting. The printer will prompt you to make a filament change after each completed color.
   1. Open PrusaSlicer (If you have a Prusa MK3S simply load the 3MF as a project and print)
   2. Make sure you are in expert mode 🤓
   3. Switch on Single Extruder Multi Material under Printers > General > Capabilities and right above it write 4 in the field for number of extruders
   4. Find the blank Tool change G-code field
      Printers > Custom G-code > Tool change G-code
   5. Copy and paste this code into the tool change field:
      {if layer_num >= 0}M600{endif}
   6. Import 3MF models only (not as project)
   7. Select “No” on the pop-up asking to load as a single object
   8. Slice, Export G-code, Print 🙂
