So I have been blowing thru so much filament (2-4 rolls/week), I've been getting a bit slack on my quality checks.
and it caught up with me..
A couple of "justpla" brand (off Amazon) -- talk about some junky stuff! It "goo's" up on the bed, doeesn't stick for anything, and gets all blobby..
Another thing I noticed (comparing it to other PLA hich prints perfectly) - it is highly brittle!
Strangely enough, I got a roll of blue PLA from "Justpla" as well, and it seems to be far better quality..
Any other recommendations for a good quality??
Good quality vs bad quality PLA?

The SeemeCNC PLA seems to be really good.

I'm a big SeeMeCNC fan, but...Eaglezsoar wrote:The SeemeCNC PLA seems to be really good.
The 4 or so rolls of PLA I got from them I would class as CRAP.
The material,is fine, but the amount of variation in diameter is horrendous compared to brands like ultimachine.
Now I haven't bought from them in a while, so they may have changed supplier, but for the cost I wouldn't recommend it.
