Review on πŸŽ‰ Unveiling Capricorn Bowden Filament: A Genuine Premium for Advanced Printing Needs by Roman Starr

Revainrating 1 out of 5

My prints are totally ruined

I upgraded my printer with this Bowden tube, at the same time I made a few other upgrades. After all that was said and done, my prints were horrible - under-extrusion, over-extrusion, horrible blobs, etc. I've spent probably 20 hours fixing all sorts of issues with my printer, including stepper motors, drivers, firmware, slicers, and settings coming soon . A forum member mentioned that some users had problems with the Capricorn tube having such a small inner diameter that it was pinching the filament. When the tube is bent, it becomes slightly oval and catches the thread, causing all sorts of problems. In a Bowden machine, the tube is constantly being bent, so the extrusion is everywhere. I'm sure this tube can work in certain settings or is worth the effort - ie flexible filaments or some sort of abrasive exotic filaments - but for general use this product did absolutely nothing for me other than give me a headache.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • weak
