As the melting point of polycaprolactone is listed as 60C, and bed temperatures can be that or higher, looks like we what something with a higher melting point.by pbannister - General
Fair enough, some adhesion is probably useful. On the other hand, when printing overhangs and bridging, we are in effect printing on air. Pretty sure even non-adhering wax offers better support than air.by pbannister - General
Has anyone explored the use of paraffin as a support material? I see use of waxes in 3D printing for mold-making, but not as support material. Seems to me that simple paraffin might serve as a recyclable support material, removed with a bit of heat. Also paraffin-soaked FDM prints have a better chance of proving air and/or water tight. (Not so good if you want to paint your prints.) In mind, tby pbannister - General
