I'm too old school for a multi color printer so this has some defects. I printed .02 layer then do a color change so in a way it smashes it all together and since its such thin layer its hard to see around the edges. The plexi sheet is actually imbedded into the print, I left a gap in the model and paused the print and inserted the plexi, it then printed over the edges.

As for the tubes they are place holders until we get something better.

Some of them are built so the front doesn't fall off at all.
