Review on BuMat ABS 1 by Joseph Morris

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Generally not bad but they sent the wrong product.

I prefer less translucent materials because they print smoother. Less tendency to get stuck/leaving a bunch of cobwebs everywhere. This does not refer to the Bu-Mat but to the thread in general. Natural PLA prints like oil, but when you start adding these dyes the properties of the material change, and then there are additional issues with bonding, tension, poor surface finish, etc. This red material goes through my hot end almost as well of course. PLA is good. What's bad: I ordered red and gray came. The label they put on the outside of the vacuum bag says red, and the label on the roll itself says gray. I have attached photos.

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
