haven't tried normal pla yet. Just doing a woodfill coaster insert, I'll try some white pla after :-)
Running this one at 80 - looking pretty good. I'll stick a pic up when it's done.
** Update
it won't touch white pla. Not a mark on it.
No idea if it's a new woodfill or not - you'd have to ask idig3dprinting, I won it in his competition :-)
I just know he said it's the 'fine' version: https://www.idig3dprinting.co.uk/sho...fine-filament/Last edited by curious aardvark; 07-13-2016 at 10:39 AM.

Does anyone have experience with EUMakers filament?
http://www.eumakers.com
They have a nice range of colors and good pricing.

Hi
Unless the stuff is utter junk, the only real answer to "will it work for me" is to get a sample spool and play with it on your printer doing your prints. I know that's a *really* boring answer. It's not one that I happen to like, I'd much rather order a range of spools than wait and try a sample. It still is the best way to do it. Once you decide on a place, stick with it for a while. It is *much* easier to get good prints with filament from the same source than a range of spools of (now) unknown age, unknown source, "best guess material", and unknown quality. Note to self: Label the stupid spools when they come in !!!

We have tried Eumaker filaments, they seem to work fine. Like most PLA if you get your printer dialled in to that particular make then you should not have any problems. We have toyed with the idea of selling them but, for PLA we use colorfabb, for obvious reasons.

Faberdashery has nice filaments as well and they can produce custom Pantone colors though it comes at an extra cost.

Well I ordered some Sunlu filaments at about $25 each with free shipping from Gearbest.
The color changing orange is a fun material. Before printing it's a bright orange, after printing it becomes a milky, salmony orange that turns to a light bright yellow when heated above 33C.
The black PLA has a too high diameter (2.97-3.15mm) so is unusable, even with oil it doesn't make its way through the Bowden tube.
Then I ordered green noctilucent PLA 3mm, but I received 1.75 flex PLA in green instead.
I am trying out the laser engraver this afternoon.
