List of PLA (and ABS) filament distributors
February 26, 2013 08:37AM
I'm trying to compile a comprehensive list of PLA and ABS filament distributors around the world.

Voxel Factory - Montreal, PQ, Canada - source: [www.voxelfactory.com]
Ultimaker? - US - source: [forums.reprap.org]

And since the Makerbot Replicator 2 is branded as a PLA-capable printer, do they sell PLA in all their stores? Here's their distributor list:

I believe that exists already on the wiki ... just needs to be update from time to time ...

[reprap.org]

and also one for price comparison ...

[www.3ders.org]

Don't know if that's what you were searching for ...

Would be nice to also include some kind of review of the actual filament. The wiki page is rather sparse on information about the quality and specific properties like surface quality, extruding temperature etc. Some suppliers' material got reviewed, but most review sections seemed to be an empty template.

A simple list of sellers is not very effective IMO, without any reviews. You could just google "buy PLA", if you would just want a list of sellers, but some reviews would come in very handy.

It is going to be a pain reading it on this forum if everyone keeps adding their supplier to the bottom of the page - it will become unmanagable really fast.
In New Zealand I recommend Diamond Age Solutions - best product & prices.

How about restructuring the filament supplier Wiki page a little bit so that it provides more information about quality at a glance? Also, completing the reviews should help a lot since only few supplier's filament ever got reviewed on the Wiki.

cheap for a 2lb roll at 31 bucks but inconsistent diameter. have to babysit my makerbot to make sure the material keeps feeding into the machine

I have recently started to work with makergeeks.com as they have a huge selection of Filiments. Laywood, laybrick, pva, pla, abs, nylon and glow in the dark. They have competitive prices as well as conductive filiment that you can use to build circuits. They respond quickly to emails. Also Printrbot has recently expanded their filiment stocks.
