Hi all,

Long time community member here. Very sad to recently find out about the massive loss of information from the banning of fosscad, but before this I was trying to do some research and am hoping to get some information here if anyone has it on some of the newer filaments that I have seen recently and if any are worth picking up. I am just polishing off the last of my PAHT-CF and Polymaker nylon-GF spools, which have been incredible for my projects, and I’ve seen that polymaker has been releasing a lot of new filaments under the fiberon line and rebranding old ones. Are there any of these that are worth checking out and has anyone been done any up to date experimentation with some of these newer blends?

Thanks all, RIP r/fosscad

    Been printing in PPA-CF and I love it. Extra heat resistance is nice especially for handguards or suppressors since tax stamp is going away soon;)

      Do you use similar settings for it as PA6-CF or do you have to develop different ones?

        I used 300blk fde settings and crealitys recommended temps for the particular filament I have. The only difference is I slowed the print speed down to 25mms instead of his usual 30mms. I’m still tweaking the support settings because they’re a real bitch to get off. I’ll probably make a post once I find something that works!
