The disadvantage of dark wood is that it doesn't stain well. With a lighter color you can use stains to change the color or darkness to emulate different woods.

I've only been looking into 3D printing in the past week or 2 and I'm really enjoying your concise videos.

That looks amazing, nice review. Really great to see the material selection expand.

That wooden Bender is *Obsoletely Fabulous*...

hi, im new to 3d printing and woukd like to try wood filament. im using a wanhao i3 with microswiss all metal hotend . what i dont understand is why did it print the vase ok, but then failed on the first bender? thanks

Hey I tried printing with this exact filament in my Monoprice maker select V2 and I instantly got a jam I had my hot end at 215 degrees and as soon as I loaded it and tried to extrude some plastic it wouldn't even come out please help thanks

can I ask where you go the fan next to the extruder at 1:31, my DIY printer has a fan but not directed to the extruder rather than the motor for some reason, if it wasn't brought separately, is there a place I can get one?

because im new to printing (3-4 months) I tried printing a woodfill flament from my maker box for variation. Although, it got 1/4 of the way through and clogged the nozzle and now i am \very scared when printing anymore from it

awesome! the colour seems very similar to the Colorfabb's corkfill, I have a roll ready to be used but I'm a little afraid to use it since I haven't found any reviews of it or some tips and tricks, do you have any experience with this?

Are you able to create a grain effect by varying the extrusion temp

Can you please share more detail of the setting such as nozzle size, printing speed, retraction, printing temp, layer height?

Great review man. keep up the fantastic work

Hi Angus, I tried this filament on my Prusa i3 Mk2 with 70mm/s speed in S3D and I got extruder jamming... What size nozzle are you using in this review? Mine is 0.4mm.

Any idea if it's hit the USA market yet? I did some googling and can't find it here.

Wow. Really like the look of those prints.

print fast and increase retraction by 1mm. No more holes. Worked for me with identical problem on cheap pla.

Hi. Can someone tell how to 3D print "Esun Wood PLA filament? I failed several times after trying different settings. The 3D printer I have has a Bowden extruder and I use simplify3D. Esun Wood filament details below. Density: 0.70 g/cubic. cm Melt flow index: 17 (190 deg. Celsius / 2.16 kg) Tensile strength: / Elongation at break % : / Flexural strength : / Flexural modulus : / IZOD impact strength : / Any suggestions, slicer settings, etc. Please let me know.

How much does the wood PLA filament cost in Australia? Much more than classic plastic PLA?

if you "dry brush" the surface with a little metallic or chrome paint, you can get a really near rust look on that bender head

Does it still smell hours, days or weeks later?

noob question...how long does it last that one 'ball' of WOOD PLA material ...For example how % did you spent in creating the Bender head

Yeah I love wood filament and this looks beautiful. I'll have to buy some of that filamentive stuff. It will make a great lightsaber hilt color ;)

Disappointed you didn't go into the settings side more. I've got this exact filament and I've had a nightmare with it trying to get a half decent print.

Whats your favorite PLA to use?

One thing to test with wood filaments is trying variations on the temperature. The clearer ones specially. Bamboo fill, for instance. You can get different colors by printing at different temperatures.

@MakersMuse

8 жыл бұрын

+JJ CC I wouldn't mind trying Bamboo fill, but yeah normally you get darker colours by printing hotter - but tbh all the previous brands I tried clogged my 0.4mm nozzles. I settled on 215deg for this wood-pla.

@jjcc8379

8 жыл бұрын

+Maker's Muse yep, clogging is an issue with "fill" filaments. 0.4mm nozzle feels like the bare minimum, it won't tolerate lower temps as well as big nozzles (thinking 0.6 ~ 0.8 mm ). It doesn't seem much of a problem to "have" to use big nozzles in this case if you use wood or bamboo like ... you might wanna print big, beautiful scuptures/objects . I said bamboo because if it's clearer (in the reel). Then you may "burn" it at your will (and printer capabiltiies). Nice video and prints! Again, so jealous you have the cocoon down there!

+JJ CC Haha I should get some 0.8mm nozzles and have at the other brands then! I'm having a blast with the Cocoon Create... though I just blocked the nozzle trying to reprint with some old metallic PLA. Got to get some more 0.4mm drill bits to clear it out.

@ProtonOne11

+JJ CC Someone needs to make a plugin for the slicer that allows some kind of random temperature changes (controlled by a few parameters, like min/max temp, deviation rates, number of layers at same temperature...) so you could get some kind of wood grain printed almost automatically. You can do it manually in S3D with a lot of processes in one print, but its a lot of work to set it all up.

Hey Angus. I know you're a fan of Onshape, but if you wanted to move your models to an offline piece of software (e.g. SolidWorks), do you lose all of the parametrics? I don't have SW, so I can't check.

+dragnet53 Heatgun to remove the white marks caused by removing supports, works rather well!

Question, what happens if you print at a lower temperature? I'd imagine that if it softens earlier, then it reaches the glass point earlier as well, and that may help your extruder contain the transition zone to a shorter distance. Thoughts?

@MakersMuse

8 жыл бұрын

+goeland86 Maybe, I was printing at 215 C which seems like a good sweet spot for my machine. Lower temps mean higher back pressure - so possibly more chance of jams that way, but yeah could do with more experimenting!

@goeland86

8 жыл бұрын

+Maker's Muse I found that most PLAs for me (and I run an E3D lite6 on a kossel mini) print very well at 205C, and I only start getting serious backpressure when I drop to around 185-190. I'm only wondering what the thermal curve of the material looks like. If the "soft spot" is lower, it might mean the whole temp curve is shifted downwards. But it really depends on the resin that's in it. Product page shows printing temp between 205 and 235C, which seems like a higher range normally recommended for most PLAs (at least the ones I use recommend 180-210)

@samtaylor4779

6 жыл бұрын

its probably to do with the heat transfer through the wood pulp being insulated. the sides in the transition zone cool down but the heat wants to rise so there would be a hard shell with a gooey centre in the transition zone then the filament gets rammed in and wedges the shell outwards and gets stuck the shell bakes the pla away and the wood fibres get concentrated in the nozzle

I LOVE the smell of wood and warm wood...

would like to see some finishing techniques tested on this filament , can you sand it ? what about the vapor melt method you use to smooth ? would a varnish destroy the pla side of the material ? would it even look good ? thanks for the video, lots of potential for this material

I am trying to go away from sanding and would much rather have almost-no layers and maybe just spray paint it if necessary. Currently did some tests with 0.06 mm layer prints which were quite nice but still not perfect enough for me.

why couldn't you lower the print temperature and ramp the speed back down to avoid the artifacts?

@MakersMuse

8 жыл бұрын

+Brian Leach This wood filament has a fairly high extrusion temp requirement for PLA of 205-235deg C but still softens at quite a low temp - printing slower resulted in my extruder jamming hence why I ran faster. Better extruder designs would do a better job, the mk10 on the wanhao is a very low cost design.

You van use wood filler or whatever to get rid of the holes

Im very close to buying a printer. Do you know anything about Delta printers? Do you know if their accuracy is effected by size? (bigger delta printer = worse accurazy, or something like that). Great video by the way, subbed

+snelpiller Sorry I've got very limited experience with deltas! As with anything, the more movement components and the larger they are the more likely to affect accuracy, but same goes for Cartesian designs. It's worth keeping in mind also that delta's have a very unique print volume, it's circular and tapers towards the top - like a cone. Great for vases, not so great for large engineering parts.
