Topic: Free 3.0mm pla sample gold and machine gray.

I ordered my lm8uu bearings from ultimachine. They sent me a sample of 3mm PLA, gold & machine gray. Seeing how i can't use this the first person to reply who can use it can have these free samples.:) I'll even handle the shipping cost anywhere U.S bound.:)

Re: Free 3.0mm pla sample gold and machine gray.

I would love it but did you consider chopping and extruding to the size you require?  If you still plan to give it away I've recently ordered a Filastruder which comes with 1lb of Sabic MG94 I can trade you.

If you build it they will come. Then they will make fun of it, tell you it's not worth doing and go home and try to copy you.

Wouldn't grinding and re-extruding it  lower the quality? I contacted ultimachine and they are going to ship me a 1.75 sample. Also, i'd have to do my homework on this Sabic MG94 you speak of;) a trade isn't required but acceptable, I've been saving my scraps. If you Pm me ill ship tomorrow.

Chopping up filament/failed prints and extruding it is okay to do.
