Yes, that is one I had in mind. Also this: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:757721. Sorry, I don't have any good tips on settings, you'll really have to experiment to find the best temperature, flowrate, etc. I did a very limited amount of printing with it and it was long enough ago that I don't remember any settings.

I ask because I honestly don't know what to look for, specifically if it will work with our extruder. I see a bunch online but I am simply not confidant enough yet to pick one and toss it in my machine. For example, would this one work (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:247024)?  Also do you have any tips on settings?

The issue is that PVA is very soft and flexible so it will tend to buckle in the area between the drive gear and the opening of the barrel. To prevent this, you can use a small filament guide that fits in this space and has a hole for the filament to pass through. You can either design your own or find an existing model fairly easily on the internet.

I just tried in my Workbench and the drive motor could not push it in the tip, it would always bind up. I tried a slower feed speed but it didn't help. Any tips??
