Also, I like mine (of course) since it's a lot more compact and uses less material. Plus it's fun to design stuff.

Anyone tried this with PC Blend yet? also what are TPU results like.

PC blend I have to use the Satin sheet and add brims and even then it curls up something rotten on larger prints if it does not detach first!.

Normal people believe that if it is not broke, do not fix it. Engineers believe that if it is not broke, it does not have enough features yet.

I'm doing a large Nylon blend shortly. I can give PC-CF a try but don't really want to print anything large since the filament is really hard to come by recently.

I bought one of these plates specifically to run TPU without glue stick, and it works fantastic in that regard.  Haven't had occasion to print anything else on it yet.  I have some PCCF which I used with glue stick on a factory satin sheet, the fibers really help keep it flat.   At some point I will try the PCCF on the glacier too.

This plate is sorcery/witchcraft. Everything I throw at has a perfect first layer, it sticks and doesn't warp off the plate and I don't have to keep cleaning it like I do the satin plate. And (after factoring in shipping) it's $30 cheaper than the Prusa satin plate. 

I'm doing a PA6 print right now of a simple box that usually only sticks to the Prusa PA plate (or satin with a lot of glue). I'm using a bare plate that I haven't even cleaned and it's sticking like a champ.

Really tempted to try one of these.

Once again though, these things are much more expensive from Amazon UK, than they are on Amazon US.

Know that all too well (I bounce to London 4 times a years)... £32.99... ouch almost twice as much.

As soon as the PC-CF comes out of the drier I'll try that next.
