How to pick up CHCKX
There is a new filament vendor on Amazon with rock bottom prices for filament. The vendor is CHCKX which I suppose could be pronounced as "chicks..." Example PPS-CF is $40/kg ??? PPA-CF is $24/kg ??? These filaments are normally 3-4x this cost per kilo. They also have PCTG (my go to PETG replacement) for $21/kg!!
I decided to "take one for the team" and pick up a few rolls. I'll test it and report back.

And free shipping with Prime! Not much shows up in an Amazon search- you have to go to the CHCKX store in Amazon to see what they've really got. I haven't tried PCTG but at those prices I might give it a go.

I picked up a roll of PPA-CF, PPS-CF and PCTG. Arrives tomorrow... 1-day free shipping!

I've been running calibration and test prints with PCTG black and this filament (so far) is really good. Especially for the price. It prints clean with zero stringing. Next up is PPA-CF and PPS-CF however will need to print those on the H2D since I can't on a Core One.
I'll provide my calibration parameters for PCTG on a Core One for various nozzles later to today. At $20/kg I think I found a winner.
Only one negative so far (which is funny). I popped PPA-CF and PPS-CF in the dryer for 12 hrs at 85°. The labels on the spool were thermal printing. So guess what happened after 12 hrs in the dryer? The labels are now completely black 🤣 At least they were smart enough to make the spools from PC.

It seems broken for everyone right now. From what I can see it's CloudFlare blocking IP addresses.
