…amazing. Prints are beautiful. If we could get that price a little lower, this would be my new go to.
Couldn’t agree more. I got my first roll Friday and dried it overnight to use it yesterday to print some pieces to mount my TV to the wall. I figured since it’s PETG it’s going to look like PETG so I’d use it for functional but out-of-sight things. Wow, was I ever wrong - it looks absolutely awesome. Now if I could just get some definite info on how it compares strength-wise - Bambu says the carbon fiber makes it stronger but every review I see says it makes it weaker. But either way it looks fantastic.
My intuition tells me it would be harder to crush but easier to snap by bending. If that makes sense.
‘TV to the wall’ sounds like something one might consider engineering filament for? I would go for PC or PA6 but perhaps it is a small TV. ![]()
Yeah, I debated with myself over it for a while. The TV isn’t huge and weighs about 6 kilos (13 pounds) with 4 mount points and will be mounted flat against the wall and stationary.
I have an A1 so PC isn’t an option since I can’t enclose it. I considered PA6, but decided that I’d only move to that if something else won’t work as its price is hard to justify (I could buy a ready-made steel mount for less than a spool of PA6). PA6-GF is cheaper than PA6-CF but both are still more than a ready-made mount would be.
Still, if this doesn’t work I’ll probably try one or the other of the PA6 varieties despite the cost - just because I get to try out a filament I’ve never used and as a bonus I get the knowledge of knowing that it’s my own creation back there holding it up.
