Bad filament

Post by jdurand »

Sometimes it's NOT just me. Out of the 11 spools of Afinia Premium PLA I've gone through in the last month, one was bad. It cracked when bent and further down the spool it was pre-broken to save me the trouble. These were straight off the UPS truck from Afinia, I was at the local distributor's back door right after he took delivery.

Afinia has confirmed and is sending me a fresh spool.

So, while it's normally me, I can sometimes blame the material.
