Topic: Where Is Raw ABS and PLA Resin Sold

Do you guys have any suggestions regarding where to buy raw filament grade resin for use in filament extrusion machines?

Internet searches have turned up several suppliers of ABS. However I've heard that there are different qualities of ABS and the some injection molding ABS won't work well for filament extrusion.

I've also have trouble finding raw PLA in internet searches.

I'm in the United States.

Thanks,

I just thought that OSPrinting was the correct answer as I have 50 pounds of PLA pellets, 30 pounds of ABS, 20 Pounds of HDPE all from them with colorants.  I also got 30 pounds of Nylon powder from Tim.  That should keep me busy for at least a day.
