First test of taulman 910 alloy
Well, first off they say to print on pva.
I printed on my pet tape with a bit of gluestick - no problems.
They also claim it doesn't warp - which would seem to be the case.
But my god does it string !
In that respect it's no different than nylon, which is a real shame. I was hoping it would be a nylon substitute that printed as clean as pla.
Nope prints as manky as any nylon. But doesn't warp and does stick to to pet.
The sample i have had been kept in the bag it came in with the silicon sachet. Yet still fizzed and bubbled.
Taulman claim this is an entirely new material. Well I can't tell it apart from nylon, which is a shame.
All i was printing were some small clips to stop pellets falling ut of airgun magazines.
I tried the recommended temps: 245 & 250. Couldn't see any difference
here's a pic of the 2 910 alloy clips next to a pla clip.
Just looks like nylon and to be honest I doubt I could tell the difference between this stuff and the 618 nylon I've got.
And that's why you buy samples before big reels :-)
The clips do work though and are tough and stiff enough to stay in place in a pocket.
So at least it won't be wasted.
But it's definitely not a clean printing substitute for nylon.
I think I need to try some pet.
Please explain to me how to...
