-====== Multi Colour Designs ======
+====== Multi Colour Faceplate Designs ======
 This topic came up working on a various projects that required a faceplate, like a clock face, a ruler or the faceplate for a sundial.
+The idea is to use a printer with multi material capabilities (MMU or AMS) and design prints to exploit these features for the best possible results using FDM 3D printing techniques.
+<WRAP center round tip 60%>
+The traditional methods employed is to either emboss of deboss and with multi colour printers we just stated "paining" into the embossed or debossed parts. This approach is to have the letters and numbers as separate objects on equal height, but printed in different colours. Separate objects simply paints cleaner with clear boundaries.
