What is the website for Malaysia? I plan to get some PLA filament, but it is shipping from Singapore.

I am printing my first object with your filament now No time to test it until today

Printing the single wall calibration at 0.2mm.



It was printed at 190 Degree Celsius, not sure it is the best temperature though. Overall, the filament is in good quality, the width is around 1.72-1.74mm. No problem stick on the hot bed, I tested with brim and without brim.

Hopefully you guys can start a base in Malaysia, so that the shipping cost could be further reduce

Is your flickr set to private? It's not viewable to me. Nevertheless thank you for your vote of confidence, much appreciated.

We operate in both Singapore and Johor, and intend to go big on Malaysia. Reducing the cost of handling and shipping in spite of the high weight is one of our top priorities for Malaysia, so stay tuned.

interested to try ABS filament.

Congrats, you can now get very nice prints. 

You could try printing replacement parts in PLA for now but you might have to reinforce the joints or thicken certain parts to make it mechanically strong. I recommend printing at 0.1 mm for better lamination strength and at 50% or more fill to strengthen the part. I have printed gears and chains using PLA and so far it is mechanically strong. I don't recommend heavy loads or anything that an create a strong shock to the part. An example is a Z axis coupler I made for my printer in thingiversebecause my printer came with a broken aluminum coupler so have to design and print on another printer using PLA. I am still using it till today and also slowly improving on the design as well.

If you don't mind mixing different materials with your existing hotend then you could get an ABS reel and try it out and let us know more about it.

Thanks, That what I decided to do, sourcing a new hotend and printing a direct drive extruder, now I just need to find a local vendor selling 1.75mm ABS hotend , stepper motor & http://3dprinter.my/, to bad they only have 3mm hotend, my ABS filament 1.75mm just arrive but due to bad packing plastic vacuum wrap punctured  hope it will last before I got the chance to use it

I was just wondering about dual extruders, won't the doubled weight from the hotend and direct drive stepper motor lead to a much reduced printing speed, say less than 40 mm/s, as the weight would cause severe backlashing at high printing speeds. I know the solution to this is to implement bowden drive but the print quality would severely degrade with the length of the bowden tube while the high hotend temp would lead to poor bridging and slope formation.

Since you have a rigid setup using some really thick rails, why don't you try the Kraken, the quad E3D extruder? I want to get that but its way out of my budget. 

It will probably be a good try if your controller board comes with extra extruder, heater and thermistor connectors. 

If you need a nearby local distributor, checkout @storm88 post http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=2862182, though I have not tried theirs yet, but If you need any below RM 100, then Qwikfab from Singapore supplies PLA filaments too. I bought some of their filaments but have not tried it yet as I was busy leasing my printer for some events but visually it looks good.

do you have glow in the dark filament , I looking for a spool need to print something for my daughter
