Bumped the temp up from 210 to 225.Green is ABS from matterhackers. I might have printed it at .2

This last batch is looking pretty clean, so I am going to try printing it.

You can also mix them 50/50 with higher MFI pellets, like MG94.

I guess I'll be making a lot of white or maybe some pale colors.  I like the filament made from the pellets although the Filastruder really goes slow making it.

You need natural (uncolored) ABS pellets to to make colored filament.

I'd ordered it before OSPrinting had any available. I tried coloring it red but it came out pink. I'd like to try making some black filament with it but I suspect it'll just come out grey. What should the ratio for it using the black master batch?
