Filament Step-up from PLA/PETG???
I want to make numerous tools and jigs for my hobby machine and wood shops. I’m looking for recommendations for a filament that would be stronger / tougher than PLA or PETG and prints as easily.
RE: Filament Step-up from PLA/PETG???
Nothing prints as easily as PLA. And for jigs etc it's actually a good material.
For models meant to be used outside I usually go with ASA. With an enclosure I find it to print almost as easily as PETG.
And for higher temperature resistance my go-to material is PC-CF.
In fact there seems to be now a CF variant for everything, PLA-CF, PETG-CF, etc. I've used PETG-CF in a few cases but don't really see much use otherwise. For anything PC you want a hardened nozzle, such as Obxidian.
