Exotic Filament?

The thing about pp cf is it is not the typical cf, you don’t have the fibers overlapping so you don’t get the same look. But you definitely get a good alternative! Still worth playing with. I actually talked to the owner of pp about their cf and it’s not really stronger than abs, I used it to print a dji inspire camera mount so I could mount a 3d camera on it and the mount has held up very well! I printed cf on a makerbot 2x with a .4 tip and I didn’t have a problem at all. The only thing about the cf is that it is very abrasive! I print it with zero heat on a Fleks3d build plate without a problem. Protopasta offers around $7-10 off a sample spool, you get a good amount, or you can use your 3d hubs discount perks code. I would definitely get a sample spool.

Good eye! Yes I go to KSU. I don’t print all if these models, most but not all, I have a good relationship with the head chair of the Construction Management Department so I can get access to their Stratasys uPrint se and have a good relationship with the Shop Manager of the Architecture department so they let me toy with their Makerbot 2x. I have also done a lot of playing with my 2.0a to make it better, it also helps that I use Simplify3d. Some of the other prints I have, I have ordered on 3d Hubs. Sourced the community!

I will definitely have to try that out! Does your Hub offer that?

In response to you asking me to a PM.

Trying to send a PM on 3D Hubs is worse than filing taxes.

My email address is contact@solidprint3d.com

Thanks,

Hi Cbrown. What Ninja flex fillament did you try? Have you checked Semiflex? It is also flexible but not as much as Ninjaflex. This topic is getting interesting!

3dpGeek · 2016-03-10T11:16:54.000Z

Ninja Flex by NinjaTek. I also since the first post tried xyzprinting flex and it is garbage. I thinking about trying semiflex.

I like the wallet. Is the Nylon flexible like NinjaFlex? What filament do you think would be the best filament to use for o-rings and belts for someone who services Janatorial equipment - like carpet cleaners and scrub brushes. I am thinking it should be relatively resistant to cleaning chemicals and water resistant.

Nice prints mate love the quad how about you doing a post on setting for each filaments and pit falls ect that would be handy for some of us who want to try them

You had me at marble, how can I get my hands on it?

David_Wood · 2016-03-28T14:49:27.000Z

How about marble, brick, acrylic, and some others? I am the only official USA reseller of TreeD Filaments from Italy. They have a huge line of seriously unconventional filaments. Let me know if you want to buy some and check it out.

David_Wood · 2016-03-28T16:42:53.000Z

I will be ordering a new shipment here shortly. Check out my Facebook page Redirecting... and message me for prices and so I can order exactly what you want.

3dpGeek · 2016-03-28T16:53:56.000Z

Okay, just added. I actually saw you guys on Amazon yesterday, you were recommended for me! Good luck!

you miss polycarbonate, its the best material to get strong and sturdy parts with high temperature resistance. You can even get screw threads inside it easily.

This is the best PC i know, made in cooperation with the inventors of polycarbonate:
