Filament Guide for the CR-10 V2 If you're reading this, chances are you've got a 3D printer that's just begging to be fed with some high-quality filament. The CR-10 V2 is an awesome machine, but it can be finicky when it comes to getting the right type of filament into its belly. That's why I created this guide - to help you navigate the world of 3D printing and find the perfect filament for your needs. Below, you'll find a list of some of the best filaments out there, along with their pros and cons. Keep in mind that these are just general guidelines, and the best way to know what works for you is to try it out yourself. **Top Picks:** * **PLA**: A classic choice for beginners, PLA is a bioplastic made from plant-based materials like cornstarch or sugarcane. It's easy to print with, has a low melting point, and produces minimal warping. * **ABS**: A popular choice for more experienced users, ABS is a strong and durable plastic that can withstand high temperatures. However, it can be prone to warping and requires a heated chamber to print properly. **Other Options:** * **PETG**: A versatile and easy-to-print-with material, PETG is a great choice for beginners who want a bit more flexibility than PLA. * **TPU**: For those looking for a flexible filament that can withstand a lot of stress, TPU is the way to go. **Tips and Tricks:** * Always print with a heat-resistant surface or a borosilicate glass plate to prevent warping. * Use a temperature-controlled chamber to ensure consistent temperatures during printing. * Experiment with different speeds and layer heights to find what works best for you. I hope this guide has been helpful in your search for the perfect filament. Happy printing! Support me on Buy Me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/jschaftenaar
