Filament, HOW MUCH DO YOU USE?

[Hawk136439]

That's awfully nice of you to try to sell him your product when all he was asking is how much people use, for a school project.

-Anyway, My printer is almost here, sometime today! It came with 2 spools of filament, so I guess whenever I use those up, I'll let ya know.

I was thinking the same thing! lol I look forward to hearing how fast you blow through that!

about 2 rolls for 1 week, i only use 1.75mm pla filament because pla is no smell, abs smell a little bad.
i use our own designing 3d printer, no brand, not for sale
use our own pla filament, it is for sale on amazon, you can check my signature LOL

Okay thanks a lot I'll look into that for sure!

well as far as pla goes I've bought 4 1kg rolls.
Used most of one and bits of the others.

I don't actually do a lot of volume printing at the moment.
But I suspect as my list of things to print for christmas keeps growing. I'll get through a fair amount in december. The puzzle tube containers for the little bottles of sloe gin alone, will probably take a roll or two. And yes i know it's cruel - but it's the only way I can think of to make the stuff last :-)
I've got 7 or 8 rolls of abs in various states of usage, a dozen or so samples of different materials and nowhere near as much time as I'd like to use it.

And pla does smell - get some white that prints at 220 - smells like maple syrup :-)

Awesome about how long do you think it takes you to run through a kilogram of material? A few weeks? Maybe a month?

Maple syrup you say? I would get so hungry!

I have a total of three systems in my control. Two at school and one at home.

I actually just ordered like five rolls the other day.

Oh wow that has to take a lot of tuning to keep three systems running!! how long do you expect those 5 rolls to last you?
