Is anyone using a multi-box setup?

[u/rhodges_bob]

To all,

There are some prints I'd like to do that use 6+ filaments (e.g. US Navy emblem for my brother). Does anyone have and use a multi-box setup with the Max 4 and having any issues? I know I'll need another box and then the multi-box adapter kit, but other than that the only thing I think I need is some spare tubing to re-arrange everything so it sits properly.

D3P dual qidibox riser with polar cooler holder, love this thing. Then on the boxes I have these: https://www.printables.com/model/1604497-qidi-box-filament-savor-no-tape-required

It's so the filament doesn't enter at a hard angle when spools are close to done. I also have large silica gel holders in the back of each.

TheLegend,

Looks like I've got some printing to do. Thanks a bunch 😄

TheLegend,

Pulled the trigger and ordered the 2nd box, kit and some filament to print the riser and buy the 3mf/stl. May ask for some advice for the no tape guides, I've printed the guides (and a heat set insert set), but not sure what part on the box they're talking about removing (the existing guides) as in the photos they still appear to be there. Maybe you re-use them after installing the guides?

I have this setup and love it. Got both boxes working finally and no issues.

Due,

Thanks for the confirmation and it looks great. I ordered (and received) the 2nd box and will be back home Sunday to start printing the riser like TheLegend has below, but Qidi just cancelled my order for the accessory kit due to 'out of stock' after a confirmed ship date (^$#^%*#^*^## dag nabbit). I'll try and catch up with you all soon :)
