Review on πŸ•·οΈ Incredible SpiderMaker Printer PLA Filament: Unleash Your Creativity by Daniel Mandal

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best filament I've ever printed with

This filament is great if you are looking for almost invisible lines, very precise angles, no stretch and reasonable tack. When printing on the .12 gauge CR-10vc2, every Spider Maker filament I've tried (five now) has produced my best prints yet. It's not just the printer setup, I've printed with other high quality filaments with good but not so good results. The interesting thing about this filament is that it gives a semi-gloss finish, but lies so well on top that when printing on a relatively thin layer you have to look up close to see the layers. At 0.2 they are visible and at 0.12 they are almost invisible. As mentioned, the corners are sharp and when printed parts need to "match" other parts, they just do it. I haven't noticed any expansion or shrinkage. The parts also have very little elasticity and feel less brittle, but remain very strong. I print at 213 degrees with these filaments as the recommended range is 210-230. When the CR10v2's bed cools down, parts with this thread come loose easily. There's just one problem with him, he's not good with bridges, even small ones. So plan for support when you need it and it will handle the support removal with ease. Please note they are supplied in 3/4kg rolls, not 1kg rolls. So expensive, but worth every penny for me. I highly recommend this range of PLA filaments. The only other filament I've tried that prints as accurately and has almost invisible lines is Prusament, which also produces great prints. But they tend to be shinier without being shiny and so the back seam is a bit more visible. Otherwise they are of equal quality.

Pros
  • VERSATILE APPLICATIONS - SpiderMaker filament can be used for a variety of 3D printing applications. (Printing Temperature 210℃ - 230℃)
Cons
  • High Price
