[QUOTE="V_8, post: 59220, member: 2099"] Hi Ned, It takes spools of filament which the filament is 1.75mm diameter (looks like whipper snipper cord), it comes in 1kg rolls and you can pick it up on Amazon for around $30 per roll - I have no idea how to calculate it except weigh the part at the end and work it out by weight. That part weighs maybe 20-30 grams. I use ABS filament as it can be glued, painted and sanded no problems, like a plastic model kit. I have given a few to prospecting friends to try and will try and get a youtube video of it in action. I saw a larger green bowl running with it last weekend and it worked very well, apart from our cons not being classified to the same size. [/QUOTE]
