Does anybody else do this?
I recently got my first 3D printer to my place just a couple weeks ago! I thought it would be really nice to keep a small sample of each of my filaments printed out so that I have a readily-available example of what each actually looks like.
Does anybody else do this? If so, which part(s) do you use? I spent probably 15-20 minutes looking for a nice, small, low-poly object that I really liked.
You're viewing a single thread.
Can't you just look at the spool?
Some filaments look much different when printed than they look on the spool. Matte, shiny, multi-colored ones for example.
Not when I run out in the future! I also found out that the silk gold I'm using definitely printed different/shinier than I was expecting, based on the spool filament.
Yes.
Seems like the ones that find it necessary to print color references are either using fancier materials or use a ton of different colors.
