ColiDo ABS and PLA Wood Composite Filament Announced

[Brian_Krassenstein]

Macau-based ColiDo is the latest to enter the materials space, with a soon-to-launch website and a just-announced new filament offering. Similar to woodFill from ColorFabb, ColiDo's newly announced filament offerings include wood composite materials. ColiDo will be offering PLA and ABS composite filaments including a mixture of wood particles, and the company notes that creations will have the look and smell of wood.

I'd like to hear any feedback from this filament too

Well, given their site isn't even working yet, I doubt anyone but the alpha and beta testers have had access to the filament.

Glad to see someone is working in this area to produce an ABS filament. I have not had much success with PLA printing and have been sticking to ABS as my go-to material especially given that only extremely hazardous chemicals can be used to vapor smooth PLA but ABS can be done in fairly common and cheap acetone.

I too would be curious about it and also how it would react with acetone smoothing techniques.
