Nature of Laywood?


Laywoo-D3 (LayWood) is a wood based filament that can be used in most desktop 3D printers. The wood filament prints easily, similar to PLA, and has a wood smell when printing.
The material has shown no warping tendencies when printed on a heated bed during testing. Possible extrusion temperature is fairly wide with a good starting point at 180C. Hotter temperatures will extrude a darker filament; using variable temperatures during a print, a faux wood ring pattern can be generated. Finished prints can also be easily sanded.
In general, if you have printed with PLA you should be able to quickly start printing with the Laywoo-D3 filament. This 3mm diameter filament comes in a 0.25kg coil and has a cherry wood color.
