They are much pricier compared to other EU based suppliers: comparing basic PLA, from prusa it is 27.5€/kg with the 2kg spool, Dasfilament and Fiberlogy give you about 16€/kg with their big spools.

I like Prusament, I have bought many spools and just yesterday I received my Prusament ASA “signal white”. For PLA, Galaxy black is one of my favorites and I buy it regularly. For the rest, I don’t see why pay so much more when the cheaper option are also good quality and give me perfectly good results and no trouble.

I am currently printing my MMU3 upgrade with Dasfilament PETG and it works great, came perfectly dry out of the bag, no strings, prints perfectly. 21€/kg vs 33€/kg Prusament.

• Prusament: always top quality, at a price (PLA, PETG and ASA)
• dasfilament.de: I bought a few spools and it has been good so far (PLA and PETG)

Prusament has been consistently top quality for many years by now, however they are a bit too expensive in my opinion.

What makes the quality is the exact composition of the plastic (additives, color pigments), the consistency and accuracy of the diameter along the filament and how dry it comes out of the bag.

Bad composition could be very bad for bed adhesion and make the filament unusable.

Bad diameter will cause mostly visual quality defects

Humidifier will cause bubbles and strings, can be fixed by drying the filament.

Back when I started I ended up with some very poop quality filament that I paid way over priced ! Nowadays I have the feeling the cheep stuff is pretty good after some drying. At least as far as PLA goes.

PS1 3D aesthetic is really in vogue at the moment. I dig it, really loved Signals. But it’s a lot, a LOT, of games in this art style.

This is why I don’t leave home with a thermos of delicious coffee. This way I have the guarantee to have at least 1 positive thing during my work day ☕

She already compensated with a boulder in her hood.

Few advice I give people getting started:

• don’t buy to many filament spools ! They are not trivial to store and preserve. I known it’s exciting to get all of the nice colors. It’s better to start with one spool of PLA and finish it before you open the next one. Myself I opened this year a spool I bought when I got started in 2018.
• add a filament dust filter to clean the filament of any dust and debris before it enters the printer. It can be as simple as a piece of paper towel holded around the filament with a clip. This will save you the headache that comes with a clogged nozzle.
• now days, model sites like Printables and Thangs are full of AI slop. Do not even bother to download a model that doesn’t have a real photo of the real printed part. If the creator didn’t bother to actually print his design before publishing, you can be sure it will be a nightmare to print, if not impossible.
• lots of very interesting videos on YouTube to learn 3D printing and 3D modeling techniques for 3D printed parts. MakersMuse a d CNC-Kitchen are good channels. You can skip all of the productsl reviews, focus on the teaching videos.

It’s a pub, it’s safe !
