Ordering PLA Filament
December 09, 2009 01:46PM
I am looking into getting a batch of 3mm PLA filament manufactured for here in the US.

Most of the quotes are for large orders (more than I can ever use), but I know many here in the US are having trouble getting PLA. I am trying to gauge the interest in selling the extra off. Anyone interested?

Anyone have a good alternative to me doing this?

People at MakerBot are doing this right now, and went through the process of trying out different PLA formulations. The first batches have proven less than ideal (yellowish color or too brittle), but if the current batch turns out right, they'll order a ton or so of it and it will be for sale from them.

They have more information on their site, so you can learn from their mistakes.

Do they ever have anything in stock? Seems like they sell everything out almost as soon as they get it.
