The holiday season is about the start and that means a lot of expensive gifts. You cannot print fully functional wearables yet, but you can print the dock for a, say, Apple watch. And why spend a small fortune on a dock by buying it? Print one. Or dozens! Life is all about making and it’s easy with our PLA Economy.
Design: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:882810
Designed by Uwe Dauernheim this small print holds your Apple Watch (which will you get from Santa, we’re sure!) safely and on a prominent place. We printed these docks on the Makerbot Replicator 2 on a 0.2mm layer height with standard PLA settings.
With one 2.2kg spool you can produce up to 81 of these docks (weighing at 27 grams each). Effectively this will cost you about € 0.43 (excl VAT) per piece for the material.
Our new grade of low cost PLA Economy was launched last week and it has been a runaway success from the beginning. You can find the full details of our latest offering here.
We have been testing this material for the better part of the summer and have found this filament a great alternative those customers who need a lot of PLA. We are initially releasing PLA Economy in four colors: White (RAL 9010), Black (RAL 9005, Red (RAL 3020) and Silver (RAL 9023). This PLA grade has been tested extensively and is being produced and shipped by the same colorFabb team you are used to so you know we are not compromising on quality. You can rely with this filament on the same high standards that colorFabb is known for. It is available only on 2.2kg spools.
PLA Economy is an addition to our range of PLA/PHA, which is available in 30 colors (and on 750 grams spools).
And remember that during Black Friday we have a special deal on all our filaments: 15% off! Find out more by clicking here. Some conditions apply though: cheapest spool is for free and samples and PLA Economy are exempt from this part of the promotion. Other than that, you can get two awesome discounts during the Black Friday weekend!
Please note: Due to the high demand of our filaments during the Black Friday sales promotion we have run out of stock on certain items sooner than we thought. ur production and logistics teams work around the clock (and even during the weekend) to produce new filaments and prepare them for shipment. Delays may occur, but we try to minimize the time you have to wait.
