Great Filament When You Can Get It, But Slow

TLDR; 230c hotend, 50c bed, all speeds 20mm/s (except when not printing), retraction 1.6, flow rate 115% I have Ender 3 Pro in stock. I finished 1 print at 35mm/s, 215 hot end, 65 table retract at 1.6. My first print didn't have good layer adhesion. They separated when the part was bent. Then, on subsequent prints, the filament would get stuck in the feed mechanism halfway through the print. After some fiddling, I realized that sticking can be corrected by lowering the speed to 20mm/s. I increased the print temperature to 230 to ease the pressure on the gear. Layer sticking was caused by insufficient extrusion (low filament) and can be corrected by increasing the flow rate up to 115%. 110 worked fine too, but I felt like 115 ended up with a much more difficult part (the parts I print are structural). This filament is perfect for what I use it for. I printed replacement footpegs for the roof rack. And rubber feet for stairs. It's soft enough to be a little sticky and won't damage surfaces, but hard enough to hold its shape. Excellent stuff.

Pros
  • 3D Printing Filament
