Not bad at all - keep an eye on the balls

This purple isn't as translucent as you might hope. Under normal lighting it looks flat with a slight sheen. If you light it up quickly it will glow really nicely, so for things you put on the windowsill this might work. Your typical vase in a typical room looks dark purple instead of crystal purple. It prints great, although I was a bit worried when the spool arrived to see some obvious crossovers in the filament winding on the spool (possible tangle/wrinkle points). . I've been fine so far…

Pros
  • Additive Manufacturing Products
Cons
  • There are other interesting possibilities.

bad thread. Clogs 4 out of 5 prints.

I had the same as Todd. This thread seems to have inconsistencies when extruding. I can print the same print 5 times and 1 out of 5 prints. I used two separate heads and a brand new one. I've printed with a wide range of PLA and ABS, even before and after this nightmare, and everything is fine. I even have other GizmoDorks PLA and ABS that work with no issues. It's just something with that particular orange translucent PLA. I tried from 180 to 225, no change. Slow/fast, big details, small…

Pros
  • 3D printing filament
Cons
  • String shorter than others

Incredibly fragile

I like the translucent coating and it prints fine, beautiful detail. I needed higher temperatures than Ultibot's Pla: 195 head/75 bed. But for some reason the filament becomes brittle when sitting in the car. I haven't had any crashes while printing, but now about five times after the print is done and the machine just stands still, the filament spontaneously breaks. For the next foot or two, the strands are fairly brittle (easily broken with your fingers), then they mostly become flexible…

Pros
  • Industry and Science
Cons
  • So far so good
