Hello,
I am trying to create a 2 color 3D printed item, but I can't even find the correct program to use. Is their a tutorial somewhere that would show me the correct program to use and how to use it?
Any information would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Two color 3D printing

That shows how to do a basic setup, which is helpfull. However it doesn't inform me which program I should use in createing a digital designs nor how to set it up to print with Repetier-Host.
I have seen a YouTube video about the basics of putting an item together but not how to create nor set it up first.
This is the YouTube
video.https://youtu.be/fInCd6nPBxQ
It shows placing 2 items on the grid and then combining them. But what program do I use to create my own digital designs,with 2 colors, so they will work in Repetier-Host?
Thanks for the help.

You can use CAD or solid work to draw the model. Then translate the model into 2 stl file which are complementary.
In one repetier, open 2 stl file.
I don't know if my description is clear enough.
