Trouble finding yellow ASA

Hi all, BBL doesn’t sell yellow ASA. Can anyone recommend something quality? I found a spreadsheet from a reddit post but the fillamentum had terrible reviews, and extrudr is shipping from the EU. The other ones don’t seem to sell yellow. Is it a difficult color or something?

Amazon sells this brand in yellow. I used the polymaker profile. It printed fine for me.

Will that work in the AMS? Though the more I think about it this won’t need to if it doesn’t. I just need it for a solar filter housing, one white one yellow.

I’m sorry, I am still fairly new to this, what do you mean by polymaker profile? Is that a preset in studio? I’m not seeing where to adjust that.

Yes it does fit in the AMS.

When you place the roll in the AMS, you will have to tell the printer what type it is. Such as asa and who makes it. If it is not in the list on your printer you will have to pick generic ASA.

This wiki will explain in detail.

Also would suggest printing a couple of Polymaker roll adapters - they print Overture rolls as well.

Edit - I also use the Polymaker settings with Overture and has worked fine for me.

I use PolyLite ASA, from amazon, in the AMS. I found out with my AMS i have no issues with cardboard. Some may have problems and they do say no cardboard. I know of about 4 manufactures who does yellow besides Polymaker.

I use the Polymaker ASA, all the time with no issues. 99% of my printing is done with this filament. You don’t need the plastic covers (I was unable to get my AMS to close with them installed anyway) it works fine without them.
