My brother-in-law recently asked me if I would like to design and 3D print a custom trim for the interior of his 1968 Camaro. I won't digress and talk about the problems I encountered in doing this, but the design turned out to be good. Normally ABS filament would be ideal for a part like this, but I run my 3D printer in my basement bedroom. I can print PLA, PETG and TPU just fine, sometimes I have to turn on the air purifier I have in the room, but given ABS filament's reputation for producing toxic fumes and the fact that none of my printers are fully enclosed, I can't print. with ABS in general. So I chose PETG and ordered this thread because the interior of the car is mostly black. I ran this filament through my Artillery Sidewinder X1 with stock 0.4mm nozzle and JGAurora A5S with 1mm nozzle. I had no problems with this thread on either printer. The prints stuck to the glass plates of both printers, I had no clogging or flow issues, and the prints on both plates came out great. Regarding temperatures, I used this filament at 235°C on both printers. As for the table temperature, I set the A5S to 85°C and the Sidewinder to 105°C (the Sidewinder's build plate has to be REALLY hot for the PETG to stick for any reason). I also keep both build plates covered with a layer of purple vanishing glue. I usually prefer filament from several other manufacturers, but none of my favorite filament brands carried black PETG at the time the filament was purchased. I'm glad this thread worked and would happily get more from this maker if I inevitably need more thread.
