cheap filament pla hi ron,what are your thoughts about cheap filament pla ?
You need to be careful when buying real low price filiment. The quality of the base material can cause plugging of the nozzle due to contaminates or poor base material which can be an issue. This can require a lot of work to clear. Low quality filiment often has diameter variation which can cause feed jams. Many of these filiments are made of recycled material which has minimal quality control. I tried some low priced materials but had problems. I then bought decent priced filiments and once I found a dependable supplier and a filiment that worked well I stayed with it. Stay with materials and suppliers that have a good following. Watch their ratings and feedback.
