Bah! The "rabbit" sand (sieved) is still very fine, I think ... I used it to bend delicate tubes.

"Fine" is a pifometric unit Furthermore ? : Cheesy:

Tasty! We cannot sufficiently recognize the practical importance of pifometry, the only unit of measurement capable of accounting for the subtle nuances of human subjectivity. 8)

But if you have brands to recommend to me, it would be great.


It's a good question (it deserves a dedicated topic) apparently the quality of plastics is quite different ... it's a bit like pellets ... the standards less. : Cheesy:

Many advise to go on 3DJack ... not tested.

Sunlu has a PLA + range (a bit like DIN + ah ah ah) ... with, obviously, nothing but praise. I will test on my next purchases ...

I finished a coil of neutral transparent PLA ... which never was. The pieces are whitish, at best very slightly translucent on some layers. Do you have any advice on setting to manage transparency? It wasn't a big deal for the parts I was printing but hey ... it didn't meet expectations ...


For transparency no idea

Yes, its salt has been ground, I also thought of baking soda instead of pissing off grinding salt.

He tried with sand, but it stuck to the part without being able to remove it, with salt it can be dissolved.

Another youtuber trapped the pieces in plaster, it's much more annoying, but he made resistance measurements:

If it's like resin, the translucent slightly whitish becomes perfectly transparent after fine polishing. It is the coarse surface condition that causes light to "diffract". When the surfaces are flat it's "easy" to do with increasingly fine sandpaper, when the shape is choppy ... mmmmmhhhhhh how to say? : Wink: have to find another method.

Baking soda seems like a good solution to me.

Here is my experience of the day, the parts were quite disgusting before (test parts) ... they are a little less so after, the effect is especially visible on flat surfaces where the streaks become less visible.

The guy in the video does say though that it only works with massive parts with 100% infill which mine does not.

I noticed a deformation on one of the finss.

It seems to me that the parts have gained in elasticity (subjective)

before:

After 45 min at 240 ° C (precision 20 ° C since it is a stove!)

In short in my case it is far from being a success ... the next test I will put the oven to full strength (250 ° C ... in theory)

It's not slightly whitish it's white ... in places, less than 1%, it's slightly translucent!

Is the wire transparent on the spool?
If so, it may have taken in moisture and bubbles formed during printing.
