Hey guys.
I was curious if anybody has ordered for themselves and tested any ABS and PLA from excelvan. I just wanted to know your opinion on it. I know its really cheap and actually I have ordered many reels of PLA from them and 1 reel of ABS.
Reason I am asking is I started using the ABS and it seems alright however I wanted to make a slurry of it with acetone to it would stick better. I have put some small chunks of it in there for 2 day and it has done ALMOST nothing. it's not breaking down. it does clump together but doesn't deform. It prints like ABS and the temp range is ABS. Another thing I noticed is I have left it out for about a month which in theory it would absorb water and create bad prints. .... however I started using it without drying it and it works perfectly fine no popping or spurting from the nozzle...
The other characteristics are right as well, you have to have a hot bed temp of 105 and if you print in a non heated chamber it will delaminate
is this actually ABS can anybody else provide input on this?
needless to say I am confused on this one
