Why?

The Lab printers are maintained by members volunteering their time, so we try to keep breakdowns to a minimum! Therefore, we have a list of approved filaments allowed for use in the printers. This is a great guideline if you want to purchase filament for use in the printers, as they have been tested by the maintainers and are known to give predictable results. If you have extra filament after your print job, consider donating it to the 'free use' area to allow others to print and help maintain a small stock of quality filaments.
