Lately I’ve been using inland brand natural Pla. It prints so nice and I find that it adheres to the print bed really well. My go to filament brand used to be Amolen but some of these cheaper filaments have gotten so good in recent years.

I switched to Atomic over 4 years ago and it's the only brand I buy now. I don't like wasting plastic and I know Atomic will print perfectly for me. If there's an issue, it was my printer's fault.

@thecitywelivein Atomic CF-PETg is absolutely amazing. And they even have some color choices for their CF filaments which I have yet se see elsewhere.

Wow I didn’t know there was a carbon fiber petg on the market yet. I have yet to try any cf filaments yet but I think they are pretty neat.

@PukeNukem They’re great, especially Atomic’s ones.
Warning! Do not use a standard brass nozzle or it will wear out after a single spool. Use a hardened steel nozzle (the black ones, not stainless steel, chrome looking ones)
