The original model had 19 or so layers. 14 of those layers included the dragon image that was not visible other than the bottom layer. I altered the model so the dragon image is only 0.4mm thick, so at a layer height of 0.2mm it only prints two layers of the dragon, with the rest entirely in the same colour (black) . This saves a significant amount of filament changing with the AMS and reduced my print time for 4 of these at once from over 4 and a half hours, to 2 and a half. Likewise I found the original coaster size to be too large, so scaled things down to 95%. I also used hilbert curve for the bottom layers as it gives a fantastic holographic effect for said dragon, particularly when printing in silk, in my case the image just pops out of the black pla. Likewise for uniformities sake, the top layers are archimedian cords to finish off the underside of the coaster with a nice spiral effect. 8% Gyroid infill was used as that held up just fine for a coaster, not exactly throwing this
