First Time Buyer help
Hello,
I'm working on a research project and I need to buy some filament for use with the Ultimaker 2+. I'm looking to buy one, maybe two filaments with the following applications.
1st application
Less friction with metal (I do not know, are there 3D print materials that slide on metal easier than others?)
Does not need to be strong
Relatively cheap compared to average spools
2nd application
Needs to not break under load! (One of my parts will be holding a bearing for a 0.5 inch diameter steel axle which will experience some moments, it holds the steering stub after a U-Joint)
I'm OK with slightly above the average spool price
Can anyone help me out with filament name/suppliers? I'm so new to 3D printing, I don't even own the Ultimaker but I need to use it :O
Thanks so much in advance!
Please explain to me how to...
