types of printing material?

[lee 2]

Ok, I got the standard roll with my printer of PLA (blue) which when printed is rock solid.

What other types of material can I get?

IE. if i wanted to print an iPhone case or dampening feet for the ultimaker, i would like a bit of 'give' in the material.

What else is there and what can it do?

There's lots to choose from! (what country are you in? Can you set that in your profile please?) I've only printed regular PLA so I'll let someone else answer.

Speaking of crazy filament types... Thermochrome filament that changes color when temperature raises - cool!

There's nylon also. I plan to try some tomorrow if I can get to it...
