Colorfabb flexible. When? Any new new?

[izzy 33]

Must admit although I like XT, I get mixed results at times on thin wall structures, same part in ColorFabb PLA is fine, so will be nice to try the nGen, I can see a set of samples being ordered as a Xmas present when they are available. I'm still doing my tests of various filaments and I'm getting a big box of cylinder flow test samples, and a great army of robots.

I got only limited time to do a test but I did print a tree frog and the overhang on the belly have come out perfect with 100% fans. That being said I think 100% is too strong cause I had to raise temp to 235°C and can clearly see a difference in color from 230 to 235 when I did that. I guess fans at 50% and printing at 225°C would give a similar result.

I notice a good difference in retraction between 230 and 235 so I suspect that the retraction will be much easier to deal with around 225.

Still no burn marks

Hope to get another run around 220-225.

ColorFabb have a Black Friday deal. Buy 4 Rolls and get the 4th free.

I might buy a couple of rolls of Ngen and try out some filament they have.

Back to the original question, Colorfabb flexible ....

I've seen it last week during a Colorfabb factory tour, the real flexible. asked when It would be available, answer; "soon, but don't expect it within a month ...."

Rats, I'm going to delay my Xmas present to my self of a sample set of the new filament until the end of January in the hope of this flexible filament, any idea the possible colour range for it Arjan?

No idea. I only saw grey... but don't think Colorfabb will leave it a that

No, they indeed won't leave it like that .......
