    Torwell, Cheap Color Changing 3D Printer Filament

    3D Printer filament is generally expensive, but one Chinese company is not only offering affordable filament, but also filament with some innovative new qualities. Torwell Technologies is selling 1kg spools of a new color changing filament, both in PLA or ABS. The filament is priced at around $20 per kg spool, if 8 or more spools are purchased. They also offer other filaments, for as cheap as just $14 per kg. We have samples coming and will be testing it out shortly. We will be sure to post the results here. More details on the company and the filament can be found here: http://3dprint.com/10324/torwell-cheap-3d-filament/

    Check out just one of the color changing spools:

    Nifty, though 8kg is a lot of material to commit to. That's pretty close to a reseller's quantity than end user.

    Not really new stuff Brian, this filament has been available, as cheap as normal filament for some time, and I doubt anyone here want's to buy 8kg in one hit, that's a hell of a lot of shipping costs.

    I know you are a youngster, you probably don't remember the hypercolour T-shirts we had in the 80's
