Wax Filament

[awerby]

Have you tried using this wax filament as a support material for PLA, using a dual extruder machine? So far, most people don't seem to be having much luck getting PVA to work with it, but it's not too hard to dissolve wax in hot water. If it worked, there would be a large market for it.

Using the wax for a support material has been an afterthought, but it has not been tested for that yet. I am in the middle of converting the D4S we are using for testing into a dual E3DV6 bowden. I got my final parts, and should be able to assemble tomorrow. I think I may test for this once I get it back together. I will post the results when I do.
