are you using the Up!/Afina filament?

Yes I currently am and I was wondering what the additional type of plastic
they were adding to the mix.

Has anyone tried attempting this blend on there filastruder?

I was going to add the temperature mod to the afinia so I could use my filastruder filament.

Question - are you using the Up!/Afina filament? The reason their filament is more exxy is because its actually an ABS-PC blend, and accounts a LOT for the finish quality ( read, all things being equal, and mechanical artifacts aside, the SD will print much nicer with the Up! filament than 'normal' ABS... )

Eitherway - yes they are nice printers.. but the ABS-PC filament makes a huge difference to quality for people that are using the Up!/Afina branded ABS.... not only are parts nicer, but they are more durable than the same part in 'pure' (ahem!) ABS ... Only downside is you have to pay the Up!/Afina premium price for the filament (but hey, given its a known quantity, its actually sorta kinda worth it...)
