Hi all,

Please note that I have just updated the listings to reflect lower shipping costs in the UK.  I have also created ABS+Masterbatch combined listings which effectively give you the Masterbatch shipping included (For all destinations). 

I have been refunding people in the past, but as this may have been putting some of you off I decided to create combined listings.  (The store doesn't combine shipping very well).

For European orders, please do contact me for a price if you are combining items, as shipping prices do vary across Europe.  I will always pass on any savings.  If you have a VAT number, please provide these details, preferably in advance as I will invoice you accordingly.

Regards,
Craig

I have updated the listings to include better volume discounts.

ABS rates drop to £4/kg for bulk purchases.

PLA is purchased in lower quantities, so I didn't get the same volume discount as on the ABS, hence a slightly higher base price.  Starts @ £6/kg for 1kg and quickly drops to £4.50/kg

Masterbatch now available in 7 standard colours:  black, white, red, blue, yellow, green, grey

The Masterbatch is universal so suitable for use with PLA.

Re: Polymer Suppliers

Any idea what happened to my3dmedia?
Was just about to place an order! Any idea on new aus/nz pellet suppliers?

Re: Polymer Suppliers

He's gona, won't respond to emails/phone calls. No idea what happened. Haven't heard anything on polymer suppliers in the land down under. Possible business opportunity!

Re: Polymer Suppliers

I have some excellent resin for filastruder use. It has the highest melt flow I have seen.
You can get some on EBAY

5 pounds 3D Printer Resin(virgin) natural color  (171347154825)
I will not be providing resin in the future when this batch is gone I am done with resin sales.

9

Re: Polymer Suppliers

How can you say it is the highest melt flow you've ever seen, but call it MG94 which is included with all Filastruder kits?

Edit: Picture shows MFI of 44, MG94's MFI is 42. This is not MG94, contrary to the listing. Looks like its Toyolac 250x10.

Nice filament in your other items for sale listing. smile

Re: Polymer Suppliers

Sorry if I was not clear. This is Toyolac 250x10. not Sabic MG94. I have extruded both and they are different. I use the Toyolac as it is available here in Indiana (Car country) I have extruded hundreds of pounds of the Toyolac and have Solidoodled over 50 pounds of making my robot parts. The toyolac is IMHO the same or better.....

11

Re: Polymer Suppliers

I agree it looks like a great alternative to MG94, its just that your eBay listing says its MG94 which isn't accurate. Could lead to some upset customers, just looking out.

Re: Polymer Suppliers

Hi, I have seen mention of running Dynaflex pellets through the Filastruder. I am interested in trying this specifically with Dynaflex G6703-0001.

Does anyone have contact information for a US distributor willing to sale small quantities ( < 10 lb)?

13

Re: Polymer Suppliers

We have opened an account with Polyone and have received another dynaflex blend for testing. What made you choose G6703-0001?

Re: Polymer Suppliers

In the past I have worked with some pretty soft silicones such as the Ecoflex series from Smooth-on. I am looking for a thermoplastic with similar properties and that was the closest one I have found so far.

Will Polyone tend to sale small quantities? I called and left a message yesterday. I am waiting to hear back.

Re: Polymer Suppliers

Found some 4043D PLA on Amazon from 3DXTech at a good price ($6.5 per pound delivered).  I ordered some from them and will let you know.  This guy also has other good stuff if you click on the company name.  I'll update the post when I get the resin.

I appreciate they don't actually say they're in the USA, but they say they are stepping into the OSP void and a quick look on the site shows US phone numbers.

Re: Polymer Suppliers

Didn't see anything labeled specifically MG94 and since the last post stated " small batch" I am assuming the small batch is gone.

Thanks battle buddy wink

Re: Polymer Suppliers

We do still have some MG-94. Please check our website under pellets and colorant.

you'd be surprised how long a "small batch" lasts.  I've convinced my supplier here in the UK to sell me 250kg as a minimum order quantity.  They consider this such a small batch that they dont really want to do it, yet it lasts about 6 months as people buy about 5 kgs at a time.
