3D model description

I created this visual gauge to show in real time which layer is currently printing, so I can know when to swap filaments for color changes.

It's especially useful for multicolor signs and plaques, as you can set different colors at different layers and change precisely to get the desired color combinations.

There are 2 sizes included, but you can also adjust to layer heights by scaling in the z axis only. One file is .2mm first layer and .1mm layers, the other is .2mm and .2mm, scale to whatever thickness you go with.

Any good settings should work.
