Q: Who is your favorite and why?
A: RioRand filament from Amazon. I like this filament because it extrudes very well and give me nice finishes. Haven't had any breaks or tangles. This brand is also holding nice consistent tolerance and circularity.
Q: Also what do you like working with the most PLA or ABS ETC?
A: I work with PLA & Flex EcoPLA because of a few reasons...
- 1) Environmentally Safer
- 2) Extrusion fumes are not noxious, unlike ABS.
- 3) Much lower UFP rating (article HERE)
- 4) Lower working temps; This gets me printing sooner and reduces the amount of 'wear-and-tear' on my machine.
Q: Also your choice of 3mm or 1.75?
A: I choose 1.75mm because its what my printer came with and I too believe it gives more print resolution.
Q: Also favorite color to print in and why?
A: I print in black for most my projects. I just like the color, it seems to give my prints a cleaner more professional look (purely my opinion).
