Flashforge Dreamer (NX) - Testing HQA PETG Filament - Part 4
This video series shows the testing of HQA Silver PETG 1.75mm Filament using a Temperature Tower, All-In-One Test, StringingPostsX Test, Bed and Layer Adhesion Test, PolyPearl Tower Torture Test, and #3DPhil Test.
Unfortunately HQA is going out of business, but there are other manufacturers of PETG out there, so this is a valuable test to see how to print PETG with the Flashforge Dreamer (NX).
HQA has a going-out-of-business sale:
https://www.hqa3d.com/
But the shipping is pretty high, so it isn't a great deal.
This 4th and final video of the series covers printing the PolyPearl Tower Torture Test, #3DPhil astronaut, and a final wrap-up that compares the settings for PETG with the ones for ABS.
These are the spatulas I used to help remove the pieces from the print bed:
