Review: Very smooth prints! Perfect for aesthetic pieces. - Now this is some good filament. I don't know what about this stuff makes it print so smoothly, but this wood PLA has aced every other filament I've tried when it comes to aesthetic print quality. It has its pros and cons. This filament looks so nice. If you compare this to other standard PLAs, this stuff (for me at least) has turned out much nicer looking prints using the same settings. Tops/bottoms come out very smooth, and even the striations on the sides of prints are less noticeable, in my experience. I've seen other people say that this filament sands like wood, but it really doesn't. It DOES sand down, however, but it's not as smooth of a process as normal wood. Which is totally fine because I haven't been able to sand down any other PLAs without it looking like trash. You can get a nice finish with the right sandpaper, but this stuff sands down like you're removing material, but also pushing it around, so sometimes edges will smooth over or become harder to sand. You just have to let it cool down and clean off your sandpaper before giving it another go. Fine grits will give you a harder time. This filament is more brittle. I didn't think it was a whole lot weaker at first, but comparing it to other PLA prints, it's obvious that it doesn't hold up to the strength of standard plastics. But, that being said, it is still a strong material, and it will hold up to some pretty impressive forces when parts are thick, but you have to be careful about impacts or thin pieces. It's not necessarily a whole lot weaker than normal PLA, but definitely more brittle. This PLA has jammed on me in the extruder twice, but after turning the temp up, I haven't had a problem since. In my experience, this PLA doesn't really take a stain that well. I've tried some darker stain pens, but it doesn't soak in like it would with normal wood. HOWEVER, using the darker stain pens, I find that when it leeches its way into cracks and crevices, you get a really nice weathered look that brings a lot more depth to your parts. I haven't tried many stains, but an ebony stain pen has given me great visual results. I recommend sanding your part after print, then running a very rough, low grit sandpaper over the surface a few times to give the stain something to sink into. The results are a very nice, textured look. The stain will darken then entire print a tiny bit, but the scratches put into the piece will stick out the most. You can put something like oil or sealant over the print if you like. Again, it won't soak in that much, but it will soak in enough. All that being said, this, so far, has been my favorite filament for printing pretty things. I can not recommend it enough. I've gone through 3 rolls already, and I plan on buying more.
Review: Finicky filament with AMAZING results - So, first I want to say that this filament gives AMAZING prints. I am beyond happy with the results and quite shocked, honestly, with the quality. I included pics of a shelf that I printed and the layers blended so well you can’t see most of them with the naked eye in almost all of my prints except for in a few of the less visible areas in crevices or on finer details, but the layering that is visible looks more like a natural wood grain which was perfect for the look I was going for on these prints. Most people can’t even tell that they are 3D prints when looking at them or touching them and are shocked to learn that they aren’t real wood shelves. The look, feel and weight of the prints really gives off a carved wood appearance and feel. I didn’t do any sanding or painting to the shelves. I left them as is right off the print bed minus the supports. But here’s the thing with this filament. It is FINICKY!! You have to have a lot of patience and be able to pay close attention to your printer especially with longer/larger prints because it is prone to clogging and scorching. These shelves are large and took 32hours each. my first shelf failed 5 times about halfway through before I got the hang of printing with this filament and after several days of failures and fine tuning I was just about ready to call it quits. No matter which settings I changed or adjustments I made it just kept failing after several hours of printing until I started preemptively clearing the nozzle regularly to prevent clogs or random scorched filaments clumps from occurring. I know this filament does tend to wear down nozzles quicker because of its slightly gritty wood texture so make sure you have extra nozzles on hand if you’re printing large/long prints with this filament. Keep the temperature low to avoid scorching the filament. I printed at 175-185 max on the successful prints. Using Higher temps tended to produce frequent clumps of scorched filament and clogging especially with longer print times. (Full disclosure: I’m a printing novice.. I’ve only had a 3D printer for a few months so it is possible that my difficulty printing with this filament lies with my inexperience and not with the filament itself) Over all I HIGHLY recommend this filament. It turns out some of the best prints I’ve seen or printed to date. It’s absolutely worth the lengthy frustrating process i went through trying to figure out how to get a successful print with this filament.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Way Better Than Expected!
*by J***2 on May 10, 2024*

First off I will say I went into this filament with extreme caution initially. This was my first attempt at printing with wood filament but of course I naturally did a lot of researching and scouring the internet about users experiences with wood filament and which brands would be most recommended. Pretty much everything I read talked about constant nozzle clogs while using 0.4 nozzles, jammed hot ends and even hot end replacements because of the wood filament jams being so bad, and people saying wood filament strings terribly. Every source I read said you have to use 0.5 or even 0.6 mm nozzles because 0.4 will not work. Well, being the adventurous person I am I decided to go against what everyone says and use my 0.4 mm ruby tip brass nozzle because I knew the wood filament could potentially be abrasive so I wanted to at least eliminate that out of the equation with nozzle wear. I will say I was kind of scared because this is a nice printer (Qidi X-Smart 3) and I hate ruining things due to stupidity lol. Well, I will say, this blew me away when I knocked out my first print (the heart shaped box) which ran 13h 36m 13s, and not a single under extrusion and absolutely no stringing. Now I have the lid printing for it, using the exact same settings and at the time of writing this review it's at about 2 hours into the next piece with about 6 1/2 hours to go, and not a single hiccup. Soooo, I don't know why people are having problems with this stuff clogging their hot ends and nozzles, but truth be told, this stuff prints just as easily as normal PLA. I do run this slightly cooler than my normal PLA, but these first prints I'm doing are running at 190c on the hot end and 63c on the bed temps. Retractions are set to 1mm distance and 40mm/s speed. Since I'm a patient person, I run things slow, like 35-40mm/s print speed slow. Why go that slow if this printer can hit over 100mm/s? Well, like I said, this is a hobby for me, not a business, so I don't need fast prints and I'm not pressed for time, even though it's nice I can do that with this printer, but maybe that's why people complain about clogging, if they're trying to run faster than the filament can handle. I have included two pictures to try and show off how nice this stuff prints, at least the best I can. On my X-Smart 3, bed adhesion is perfect. I do a dawn soap and hot water wash on the build plate before each print though, no rubbing alcohol is ever used for cleaning, and a good z-offset calibration. In the two prints I've done so far, adhesion was never a problem and it stuck to the plate solidly and popped right off once cooled, like normal PLA would, and the first layer went down butter smooth with no gaps. As a bonus, this stuff smells great while coming off the hot end. Almost like a campfire smell, just not as overbearing and eye watering like a real fire. So I can say I know there's definitely wood embedded in the filament. I do intend on sanding and staining this so I may update this review at a later time when my first project with this stuff is done printing, but to sum it up, I highly recommend this particular wood filament from Hatchbox and don't be scared to run it with a 0.4 nozzle even if other people are having problems, but again, I'm using a ruby tipped brass nozzle, so I'm not sure how a normal brass nozzle will hold up to this and I'm not sure how hardened steel quality will be since you're going into new territory as far as slicer settings with hardened steel (temperatures, retraction, etc.). Just keep your temps lower than normal as this stuff will ooze a bit at the higher end, but at 190, I have no stringing or oozing, keep your speed respectable and watch your retractions. I definitey plan on buying more at a later point and I can safely recommend this brand as Hatchbox is know for quality filaments, and this is no exception.
