Slicers:
CURA free vs
Simlify3d $149
Take away. Both put out acceptible products
but Simplify 3d is more flexible at this time.
Materials:
Starting with PLA: PLA is considered easy to print with but is not suitable for outside
or in cars where heat may be a problem.
ABS vs PETG vs PLA
PETG has become the goto filament for many as a substitute for ABS giving easier to
facilitate printing but having the durability of ABS. That said in the tests in this video excellent
results were accomplished with ABS using Makeshaper ABS filament.
Makershaper ABS
Gizmo Dorks ABS highly rated.
Makeshaper PLA
Makeshaper PETG
Alternate PETG highly Rated
Nylon:
Nylon is similar in difficulty to ABS to print
but gives a product that is stable in the outdoors and in cars.
