We are sad to see our fully cardboard spools go, but these new plastic spools function great and can be broken down to be recycled! With so many variables in 3D printing, we are glad to give you one less thing to worry about. #3dprinting #3dprint #3dprints #3dprinter #functionalprint

also shout out to @protopasta.bsky.social because my giant box of filament arrived JUST as I was about to start printing these, and three of the four are theirs! (the purple is ziro's diamond line, I do still love my ziro)
the sides of the 4 boxes showing a deep glittery purple, a gorgeous moody chaotic teal/midnight gradient, an amazing winter ice blue sparkle, and a gorgeous sparkle pink that is almost salmon colored

Gold Dust Glitter PLA and Stratocumulus HTPLA go together magnificently in a dragonfly wing fan, just so you know. I’m calling it my Versailles Fan.

okay y'all, @protopasta.bsky.social has ruined me for any other sparkle black filament. I ran out of Empire Strikes Black and I'm going to buy more. Yes it is pricey, but the quality is worth it all on its own, plus they donated filament to print anti-ICE whistles so SUPPORT THEM!!!

Empire Strikes Black combines translucent black HTPLA with sparkly glitter flakes to create a unique high-temp sparkly black metallic PLA.

I thought the preview was a photo of space. Not, just Empire Strikes Black. Thanks for appreciating our product & sharing our values. Have you tried Texas Tea or Wonder Black? Gold and rainbow sparkles in black are also amazing!

Not just good… it came out GREAT on the first real parts I printed with it. These parts will hold a high power rocket motor in a rocket. (Ignore the texture of the bottom of the one piece, that’s intentionally porous so epoxy will penetrate to encourage bonding.)
Sparkly blue motor retainer for high power rocket. 3D printed in Joel’s High Five Blue glass fiber reinforced high temp PETG by ProtoPasta.

Next week I will hopefully reveal the pop-up site/mini auction where we are offering our fun new items but I just gotta say that this green dragon book box is FUCKIN GORGEOUS and that black sparkle filament (from @protopasta.bsky.social !!!) is unreal.
A baby dragon curled up sleeping on a stack of books. The bottom is a dark green, then a black with unbelievable sparkles, then a brighter green. The dragon is a sparkle teal

240℃ wasn't great, but it only had one "stuck filament detected" issue. 250℃ had some print artifacts as well, but never required manual intervention. I think 290℃ started having some over melt issues, and it and 300℃ both had some oozing and stringing. 260-280 were all "ok", I'll be going with 270℃
miniature temp tower from 240 up to 300. 240 shows darkest and 300 lightest color. 240 is also the worst with missing bits, and stringing, and generally yucky print quality, 250 is also bad, but much less. 260 is ok, 270 is pretty good, 280 is OK and 290 and 300 start showing some stringing and slumping.the back side of the same temperature tower, showing the same issues as before, just even worse because of the features this side has.

For sure! About 10 years ago :-) 3D Fuel did as well. Not a new idea, but if you wait long enough, what's old is new, right? It was fun exploring scent over the years with coffee, pine, cinnamon, etc. The downside is the added moisture uptake and all the additional material prep.

Sticky like normal PETG. Most sticky to the nozzle.

Sorry, I didn't get to the bottom of the temp difference on Prusa MK4. I've been printing at 300C on Bambu. It's crucial to dry HTPETG. I can try the MK4 again next week, but I speculate the larger heat affected zone allows (requires) a lower temp. HTPETG will be for sale at Protopasta.com this week

Didn't skimp on the pigment. Wanted to make the filament nice and opaque for a nice contrasting alternative to nearly translucent quantum dots
