HZST3D Gunmetal PLA 1.75mm Filament Testing - Part 2
This two-part video shows the testing of HZST3D Gunmetal PLA 1.75mm Filament. It's hard to find true gunmetal colored PLA so I picked this one to see if it will for a product I'm working on.
Part 1 shows unboxing, and using a Temperature Tower to evaluate the best extrusion temperature to use.
Part 2 covers Bed and Layer Adhesion testing and having to go to an even lower extruder temperature. It finishes off with a print of #3DPhil to compare it to other ones we've printed.
