Anyone have a particular color filament that always fights them? For me it's white. Just a very finicky filament color. I've tried multiple brands, all with similar issues. If anyone has suggestions for consistently smooth printing white filament, I'm all ears.
Matte Fiber Recycled PLA from @Proto_pasta prints sooo nice! First print, almost dialed in perfectly.

Cancelled print on the left looks terrible, but right looks great. Same model, same printer, same filament, printed same day. Left sliced with Cura 4.7.0, right sliced with Cura 4.0.0, profile as identical as possible. Haven't encountered this with any other model.

The model on the right was printed last, so it's not a moisture issue.
Hey @3DGloop I just saw that you exceeded your funding goal for Gloop 2.0, congrats! Now your March Gloopday order fulfillment goal can't come soon enough. I needs me Gloop 2.0 and new brushes!

First print with @3DDPLUS silk bronze PLA, on @Creality3dprint CR-10. Needs more tuning, but love it already. I've printed lots of Baby Yoda (thing 3996233), but this particular one will be on his way to hopefully brighten the day of a 9 yo cancer patient and Star Wars fan.

This is what a $600 baby Yoda looks like. I was prying him off the bed and he unexpectedly popped off which resulted in my finger running down the edge of the mirror bed. ER visit and stitches = $600 baby Yoda. I don't even like the gradient. #3dpSafety #AngryYoda

@Bugman_140's Skullpkin (thing 3148236) printed awesome on the @Creality3dprint CR-10 at .2 layer height. I printed one in plain orange last year and it turned out well, but the finish on this CC3D Silk Rainbow PLA is amazing! Lighting is just overhead bulb from the ceiling fan.

Getting ready for Halloween. I love #3dprinting with 0 infill or top layers and filling with epoxy resin. These were on the @Creality3dprint CR-10 and the resin was mixed Pearlex pigments.

Walked into the room and noticed two things. The print is done and there's no filament in sight. Uh oh! I knew this one would be close, but wow! You can see where the extruder gear stopped on the filament, only 10mm to spare.

After 1500+ hours and temps as high as 255°, I think I finally wore out the @captubes XS series PTFE tube on my @Creality3dprint CR-10. Luckily I had just enough extra on hand. Already swapped out with a new blue tube!

@3dprintingnerd in your @Elegoo_Official Mars video you said you didn't wash off all the uncured resin (5:50). I printed the test rooks in clear red and my prints had the same spots as yours. Saw the base was hollow and full of uncured resin. Maybe it seeped out of the print? 1/2

This is an awesome new option for those that enjoy the project, but don't want the filament samples!

I printed Moon City by @Kijaidesign shortly after it was released (Apr 2017!), but didn't get around to printing Moon City 2.0 until now. I love the original, but wow 2.0!! 70% scale, 1.2 layer height on @Creality3dprint CR-10 Mini with @3DDPLUS Chameleon Sparkling Rainbow PLA.

I'm not a big Pokemon fan, but I love the low-poly models. Lapras (thing:2471572) printed at 190% scale on the @Creality3dprint CR-10 Mini at .2 layer height with @3DDPLUS Chameleon Rainbow PLA. Lots of color transitions for just 52g of filament.

Haven't printed a Groot planter in awhile, feeling nostalgic I guess. Printed (thing 2610529) on the @Creality3dprint CR-10 with .5mm nozzle at .2 layer height using CC3D Silk Rainbow PLA. Love this filament, it looks like color shifting chrome.

I'm in the running to win a @geeetech A10M 3D Printer during @jshawstidbits 10K Giveaway!!! gleam.io/SYz41/10k-giveaway

Don't put off your #3dprinter maintenance. I put it off too long on my CR-10 and it bit me 28 hours into a 32 hour print. Worn extruder gear that I probably would have noticed during maintenance. Damn. Test print (on left obviously) looks great at same Z height, same settings.
I just ordered some #gloopday PLA from @3DGloop! Can't wait to see the new cap...and maybe win a cool @repkord RepBox.
Heya! So if you haven't heard, we are giving away a pretty awesome @repkord RepBox @repboxofficial! If you want to get in on this giveaway, help us spread the word about #gloopday! bit.ly/gloopday Maybe consider pitching in to help bring about those awesome new caps! 😎

I print an excessive number of faceted vases and bowls. It's hard to find uses for them after two or three, but I keep printing them. Tonight was a vase mode bowl in CC3D's beautiful Silk Silver Blue PLA. Even the inside is pretty.

It doesn't look like it, but this is 6 pounds of PLA scraps! Ready to ship out to @replay_3d for recycling.
