Per @ThantiK , deltamaker buys from the same supplier as Makerbot and sells for less on Amazon. I buy ABS for a replicator 2x at proto paradigm

I bought 8 rolls of Prototype supply PLA on Amazon for about 27.00 a roll with coupon… So far no issues

I was planning on Ultimaker, based on recommendations here, but I’d have to spend a lot of time whittling 2.8mm down to 1.75mm How’s the monoprice filament?

I’m having serious feed issues with two rolls of MakerBot brand and want a PLA success before asking for a refund…the printer can extrude ABS just fine, but without a heated bed, that’s problematic.

@Mike_Miller , UltiMACHINE - not UltiMaker.

aaaah…crap. Well, we’ll see how justpla’s PLA is. They’re all MakerMachineBotPlaUltiSmplPrint turbo Pro…after a bit, all the names kinda run together.
