It's the first time I've heard someone ask that. No idea what the problem is. But it's a whole Kilo, and depending on the size of your extruder nozzle, a pretty big sizing difference can be seen as well As long as you are not using it for rappelling or the like, it should be fine for 3d printing.
This is pretty close to what I was thinking. The picture shows it pretty close to how it is. The only difference is that they're a little lighter (not much).
Food-safety is not assured with prints due to their porous nature, but PLA is not There is nothing toxic about it, it has been tested for two years under water with no degradation.

Like anyone reading this comment, I also bought most of the It took me a while to realize that dark blue hatchbox PLA was my favorite until orange came along. I'm not sure if PLA can get better than this as I have flawless prints. There is no stringing with Orange, and the surfaces are the smoothest I have seen. The clock is at zero. This layer has only 2mm layer height and it is so smooth that even 3000 layers stack doesn't have In addition to not being matte, it is shiny, which draws attention to the orange tone even more. For the best-looking results, this is how I set it up A

Printer Grade CR Nozzle for 10S Pro From 180 to 205 (range 180-205 The adhesion on the bed at 200 was not as good as it was at 210. After the first layer it probably still prints very well, but because I don't want to configure the slicer every time, I will just start at layer 205, and continue at layer *) Bed The 60-inch fan Retraction of 100% Six millimeters is one inch at a speed of 60 millimeters per second. It is an amazing PLA to have a speed of 60mm/second.
You will be receiving an orange filament if you order it at the moment, which is NOT the same as the regular orange filament you would expect to receive. You will also notice your prints take on a matte finish rather than the shiny finish you are used to Aside from that, the PLA itself seems a lot more wax-like The end result means tearing off supports will become a very arduous and painful process, which will make you more susceptible to injury from cutting tools. I am not recommending purchasing this product at this time. Hatchbox needs to improve the quality of their products if they want to become worth buying again. If they don't receive a counterfeit—which, judging by the official box and flier I received, I doubt it is—they should not be making counterfeits. There is something about this pandemic that caused them to cut corners with their product output, and they are clearly showing it. While I am waiting, I will shop for other brands such as Overture.
The formula has changed in some way. The orange hatchbox PLA is one of three filaments I'm working with at the moment. Approximately 4 out of 5 I had 5 OK prints out of it, but then the adhesion got worse and then there was This will cause the hot end to jam up within a couple of minutes of beginning I've tried almost every temperature and it's almost all the same. There is no jamming on the other filaments. They have good adhesion and enough adhesion to print well. I am now close to giving up on this spool of Hatchbox filament. After trying everything to get it to work, I am nearing the end of my patience. It's like the spools just keep getting worse and worse as I print with it. I've had two previous Hatchbox spools and they were both fine. This orange one is just getting worse. Aside from that, the melting temperature of this filament is very low in comparison to those of I think it's way too soft to be orange stuff. During this time, I will not be logging on to hatchbox.
There is nothing like this stuff to print so well In truth, the whole 3d printing experience exceeded my expectations, so I have no real complaints. Having tried a dozen or so filaments of differing quality (and Expenses), I could print with one PLA filament for the rest of my life.
Over the past several years, I have used about ten different filaments from a variety of As usual, I've had adhesion issues, but for some reason, the orange Hatchbox filament won't stick to my build plate (tempered glass covered with PEI). It's been hotter than that and I've ended up with As a result of trying colder temperatures, adhesion was lower. Slowing down the speed significantly and creating various layer heights served as a learning experience. My only solution was to switch filaments to get my print to stick. The orange filament was using 10 or 12 different settings to try and get a good base layer, but I couldn't get it to work. As a result, I am confident that I have successfully printed the same print twice with different filaments (one with wood fill PLA and one with regular PLA). As of now I have a third print running at full speed with a third filament (a silk PLA), and it is Since I do not know what other variables I could isolate, I believe I have isolated this issue to a filament issue. measured the diameter of the filament and it looks like it is quite flexible within It seems several of the spots I measured are within the . I am wondering if this is contributing to my adhesion problems. The thickness of one millimeter is 03mm. Although several of the spots I measured were out of tolerance like 1, the average was 75mm. In the near future, I will order another brand of orange filament to try it. I gave it two stars since the filament is very colorful and I generally like Hatchbox filaments (my blue Hatchbox hasn't caused me any issues yet and is always a A 75mm lens).
It cost me $50 for 2 spools of filament from Hatchbox The orange one is on the left, the black one on the right. This might come down to inconsistencies between batches, but I found the black to be a little disappointing while the orange was a pleasure to work with. I made a dry box (the type with desiccant at the bottom and spools hanging on a PVC tube) at first and they worked well. It has been a couple months since both spools were last removed. perform well before it was in the box, but in the past year or so has become very brittle and difficult to handle. Printing is still very good with the orange, since it is not as brittle. Even though the black paper is brittle, it prints more creamy (not blobs or weird artifacts) and I get a lot of stringing even on straight walls no matter what I do. It's the same file (the same ) prints great in orange. Although I pulled the Black spool out of the drybox, I have yet to see any improvement after two weeks at 50% humidity in my house (I live in Florida). My understanding is that the Black developed some chemical degradation with time. I'm not a chemist, so I have no idea what's happening What I have experienced is what I am reporting. In my next order of Orange, I'll get more of it, but I'll try the black PLA from another brand first. As always, these are just my own observations based on my own experiences. There is a possibility that your millage will differ.
