Topic: ABS Filament

What filament do you recommend for 1.0 DaVinci? I already have the reset device but I don't want to jump on ebay and buy some crap filament.

Re: ABS Filament

Where are you located? That would help people give you recommendations on where to get quality filament.

In most cases, if you're buying from established dealers who also carry brand name filament, you can go for the cheaper stuff.

I recommend to NOT buy filament from no name online stores, or directly from "budget" chinese stores. Some of the poorer quality filaments could block your nozzle, cause feeding issues or adherence/layering problems.

if it isn't broken, you haven't modded it enough

Re: ABS Filament

be careful of the brand of filament you buy... im finding out that not all filament are created equal.  I'm on the hunt for a PLA filament that will work.  and different MFG's definitely turn out different quality models using the same Gcode
