HATCHBOX 3D Filament: Unsurpassed Dimensional Accuracy for Additive Manufacturing Review

EDIT: I am downgrading from 3 to 1 star. I just reloaded the hatchbox thread after it broke off in a couple of places. I found a length that seemed stable so I decided to finally print and finish the coil. Although I should have known. A little over halfway through the print (a few hours later) the filament twisted and my printer probably ran for about an hour without printing anything. Hatchbox is done forever. ORIGINAL 3 STAR RATING: I got started with Hatchbox PLA Filament when I first…

After trying many brands, I decided on Hatch a long time ago. At the same time, I can use up to 4-6 Hatchbox coils per week. Both at 1.75 and at 1 .75 3.0mm in diameter (I have 2 Creality CR-10 and Lulzbot Taz 6) Consider me lucky but I've never had a spool tangle but I can see this happening with…

Good. Well, I'm actually a pretty big fan of Hatchbox. I've used their black, copper, orange, red, and a few other colored PLA filaments. I also used ZIRO marble thread and Solutech 3D transparency thread. But their gray color is by far the worst PLA I've ever used. Point. I tried 3 rolls of it and all 3 rolls were just rubbish. The color isn't too bad, it's a cooler grey. However, ALL POSSIBLE PRINT ERRORS are displayed. So get ready. color is required. It holds up well about 80% of the time…
