Review on 🚀 Flashforge PLA 1: Elevate Your 3D Printing with High-Quality Additive Manufacturing Products and Supplies by Marc Hawkins

Short version: smaller spool, fits Adventurer 3, prints well, no adhesion problems. Not entirely opaque and caused some printer bumps along with small loops in the prints. Examples of imprints from top to bottom: Adventurer 3-Wheel Adapter, Standing Corgi, Miniature Goose, Hearing Protection. The second image shows the underside of the corgi to show the opacity. Long version: Even though it's the same brand as my printer, it knocks a lot harder than other filaments I've tried. As the roll neared its end, it became more difficult for the printer to feed it as the shock increased. I used the same settings with the other threads before and after and didn't have the same bump issue. There were some looping/dropping issues when printing the inside of the Corgi's legs and on the adapter - both printed at the base of the Adventurer 3's default speed settings. The supports may have prevented this, but the part of the adapter that had it at worst would have required a maximum of 2 supports. The texture of the yarn is smooth and fairly flexible - it is easy to roll up if needed. I took the last bit off the spool to use for something else and it stayed in the spool and I didn't have to fight it. It also basically stayed in place when I didn't have a good grip in it. It also didn't break when I intentionally roughened it as a test. I'll probably try more Flash Forge filament in the future (especially if I can find a more translucent one like the red they sent with the printer as a sample), but I don't know if I would intentionally buy yellow again. I would probably also buy 1kg spools instead of those 0.5kg spools to get more bang for my buck, especially now that I have empty roll-up containers. Even though it only weighs 0.5kg I could still print a few larger items. So if you need a specific color for a few things but not a ton, it might still be worth not having a spool of something you don't use. Don't use a lot to hang around forever.
