My new favorite with one caveat

Hatchbox PLA has always been reliable, durable and good looking but these matte finishes really enhance the look and make it look more professional. Matt also hides common misprints well. One caveat is that durability may not be as good as gloss (rather than matte) stock, but I may not have had a high enough extrusion temperature in a print that cracked in testing. This was printed at 200C, which is what I usually print with standard PLA. I noticed that it was stronger at 215C. This time…

Pros
  • Happy so far
Cons
  • Will write again later

I'd rather be stuck in Guantánamo than use this PLA

Let's start with I love hatchbox, generally the best performance pla. Well, let's move on to the main issues. Most of the 1 star reviews talked about the issues I had, but this is a warning to you. If you dare to print with this PLA and use the magnetic pad here, it will stick forever until another PLA overlaps it. Also, don't leave it outdoors for long, it will become brittle. Basically print it all out at once and regret your life after it's all done and possibly during the process. I was…

Constant clogs: 3D printing consumables

I've been using Hatchbox alongside other PLA filaments for years and never had this problem. The first thing I noticed was that the recommended extruder temperature was about 30 degrees higher than the previous hatchbox coils I've used, which indicated something had changed in the formula. No problem, so I tried a few test prints in five degree increments from 205c to 230c to find a sweet spot. I've never found a single sweet spot. Significant underextrusion was observed at each temperature…

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • High price
