Topic: Nylon 66 Types
Hey, I'm getting ready to buy my first Filastruder, before I get it though, I want to get some feedback on whether one (or all) of these types of Nylon 66 will likely extrude. I know the early 3d printers used to use weed whacker line for filament (which was usually made out of Nylon 66 with some glass fiber and addatives). I also asked Taulman about nylon 66, and he said he successfully made filament out of it. However, I'm also the one who had Ggalisky try to make filament out of the black nylon 66 that he couldn't extrude (that was some surplus off of ebay that I had no information on).
I know nylon 66 has not been successfully tested yet, but I'm willing to try it. I can get one of these different types of nylon 66 and I wanted to know which one would most likely be able to extrude into filament.

The only differences between them are one seems to be a base plastic, one is lubricated, and the other is internally lubricated. I don't know the differences are between these properties, or whether they will affect making filament with them or using them as printer filament. If you know, please share . There are a few other types like "nucleated" and "low flow" but I don't know if those properties are important. I can find the sheets for those as well if they are.
