Neat winding for smooth result: Each spool of filament is neatly wound, which prevents tangles and feeding issues, giving out smooth printing results.

Good Yarn, Shines Like Metal

This thread is a bit pricey but has a really nice sheen when you get it. The temp seems to be a little over 200 but it's pretty much 205 now that I've printed the test cube shown on the Artillery Sidewinder at 0.2mm. If you want it to be shiny, increase the temperature a bit to increase the gloss and adhesion of the layers. In general I am satisfied with the purchase.

Pros
  • Gorgeous Color with Shine: The brilliant color of this PLA floss brings shine to your parts, and with strict quality control, you can get consistent colors from spool to spool.
Cons
  • No instructions

Super Cool Filament - 3D Printing Consumables

New to 3D printing but gaining experience quickly. I have 11 spools of filament from 4 different manufacturers and a few really stand out for their ease of use, visual appeal and fun to use. I have printed dozens of parts and storage cases and used this filament for a batch of 9 and they came out very well, looked great and will join the many others I have already printed. Haven't printed too many "little" details yet, but when I do I'll look for more SainSmart silk threads. They have lots of…

  • Filament Diameter: 1.75mm; Dimensional accuracy +/- 0.02 mm; 1 kg (approx. 2.20 lbs) per spool; Vacuumed with desiccant; Recommended extrusion/die temperature: 190-215°C.
Cons
  • Long delivery time

It's worth paying a little more if you can afford it

Excellent thread! It's a little more expensive than I'm used to but prints way better than some of my other brands/colors, shiny silk and the roll is packaged immaculately! - Excellent adhesion - Smooth print quality - Beautiful colour/finish - Perfect packaging / no tangles The printer is a Geeetech A10 (all standard parts) with glass super plate. Settings used: Hot end = 200s Heated bed = 60s Print speed = 50mm/s (max 60) Adhesive = No temperature changes. *I highly recommend using the Gizmo…

Pros
  • Superior dimensional accuracy of +/- 0.02mm: Throughout the manufacturing process we use laser guided optical micrometers to measure the filaments to ensure consistent print quality for every print.
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
