Review on 🖨️ HATCHBOX Transparent Dimensional 3D Filament for Additive Manufacturing by Bobby Plymell

Hatchbox is my favorite filament. This was the first transparent thread I tried. It's a smaller role than my others, but that's ok. I've found that I don't run too transparent as often as I do too opaque. Transparency lets you see the fill on some prints, which can be cool. I've printed several rolls of their PLA filament on both my Printrbot Simple Metal at home and my Flashforge Creator Pro at work in my classroom. Prints well on both machines. I find 205 degrees Celsius to be the optimal temperature for most prints. Not all prints are perfect, but I often find that the pattern is more of a problem than the filament. In other words, if my print has imperfections when printed with Hatchbox, I can reprint it with a different brand and the new print will have the same imperfection. In this case, adjusting the print settings (layer height, print speed, temperature) often helps. I recommend storing all PLA filament in ziplock bags or other airtight container with silica gel packets inserted inside. I've had several rolls for almost a year now and they still print flawlessly. I try to write helpful, short reviews for all of my Revain purchases. If you found this helpful, please let me know by clicking Yes below. Thank you!
