Comment on Finally got the Box Turtle AFC mostly dialed in, yay multicolor!
MxRemy@piefed.social 8 hours ago I love it, yeah. There are some hiccups, don’t get me wrong… it warps as bad as ABS, and not many people sell the pure stuff. But:
- It’s non-toxic.
- It’s biodegradable.
- It smells really nice! kinda like… play-doh?
- It’s realllyyy strong!
- It’s got this weird-but-nice texture, almost more leather than plastic.
- It never jams my hotend.

Are jams really that common anymore? I’ve got around 2500-3000h of print time on my two printers and I’ve never had a jam or clog on any of them.
It depends I guess. How many different types of material are you switching between, and how often? We commonly use PLA, PHA, ABS, ASA, HIPS, PETG, TPU, PP-GF, PA-CF, BVOH, and occasionally a few others/composites/etc. Some of them really don’t play nice with each other either.
