Topic: Printing with polycarbonate
I recently purchased a Filastruder and have had fantastic results with it. I am using it to make polycarbonate filament. My problem, however, is when I print, I can't get it to stick to the build plate. I have a Makerbot 2X with a heated aluminum plate covered in Kapton tape. It won't stick to that at all; it pretty much globs up and scoots it around. So I tried painter's tape, and it sticks for a little bit, but after about the first layer, it starts coming off. I also tried hairspray on both the painters tape and kaptop tape with no better luck.
Has anyone else had a problem like this? Thanks in advance.
