I just bought my filastruder and have a Ultimaker, so I would like to make 3.0mm filament with ABS MG-94, do you have any recomendation for the first test?

Cheers

What size drill but did you use?

It is drilled to 2.77mm.

Extruding: Not much difference. Filawinding: You'll need to move the PTFE holder further away so the servo doesn't have to flex the filament as much to move it back and forth on the spool.

I am starting to experiment with 3mm so thanks!

Also, what are the major differences in extruding and filawinding 2.85mm?
