    cheers - I'll get a roll.
    And compare it with the colorfabb.

    My only experience with esun filament has been 100% negative. Got 2 rolls with the knp, the white is hands down the worst filament I've ever seen. just breaks every few minutes, never managed to complete a print with it.
    And the black was the worst black pla I've tried, stringy, blobby - just plain nasty.
    So was a bit reluctant to just buy any esun without asking :-)

    But for £26.40 a kg delivered - it's less than half the price of colorfabb for a larger roll. colorfabb xt is only 750gms.

    Looks like it's either white or black lol
    I'll try the white. Be interesting to see if the colourant effects it the same way it does abs and pla.

    Right, it's on it's way :-)

    For anyone in the uk I've bought it from ebay. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/eSUN-3D-Pr...dYgikaRjKhZ8mw

    If the properties are anywhere near as good as the colorfabb stuff, I could be shifting permanently to petg. It's even food contact (that's CONTACT) safe. As well as being nearly as stiff as pla abd more flexible and tougher than abs, plus prints really really clean and sharp with no perceivable shrinkage.
    And if it's cheap as well - why use anything else :-)
