Filling 3D Prints with Sand

One of my Maker Faire Nova experiments was filing prints with sand.  I am still new to the process, but already had a few tips to pass along.

And since it has been a while since I went into detail about multiple processes in SImplify3D, I decided to do a tour of my slicing settings of the two prints.

Ending Script of my First Print of the Ribbon:
G91 ; relative mode
G1 Z10 ; lift 10mm
G1 X30; move over 30mm

Starting Script of my Second Print to Finish the Ribbon:
G90 ; absolute mode


Maker's Muse has a most excellent tutorial on running Multiple Processes together-- that is at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OcddlK36OVs
