I love printing with PVA but quality has been inconsistent when I purchased it.. Good batch here, bad batch there, and ultimately I order from different sources all the time... Amazon.com started selling this MAXX filament and I haven't tested there color filament but their PVA is letting me build really large architectural prints with my FDM printer. Love it!!! Check it out if your a PVA freak like me. :cool:

Have you ever tried to print ABS and PLA as support, then soak into hot water to remove the PLA easier?
My 2 nozzle setup is coming next week, and I was wondering about the support material if I should get PVA or just use PLA.
That sure is some expensive filament. I am getting my Dual extruder tomorrow, and was hoping to use a material like this for support area's. Maybe later I will get to try that
I've heard of using PLA as support, but you have to soak it in a solution of lye to soften it. Lye is corrosive, and it's hard to get because it's used for making methamphetamine. I'd stick to PVA, which dissolves in water.
