Hello guys, I am starting a project and I will need 3D printings but I first need to make my own filament. Does someone has the filabot or do you know where I can hire one?

Many thanks.

Best.

Hi Donato,

I’ve not seen any filament extruders available for hire. However I’m London based and I’m expecting one to be delivered soon so I may be able to help you out soon.

How much filament do you need and what type did you want? Also when do you need it?

Hi Donato,

Sounds cool! What kind of project are you starting? I’m doing a project on recycling here at 3D Hubs (Talk Manufacturing | Hubs)

If you have any interesting results please share them on Talk! And if you have questions please don’t hesitate to contact me :wink:

Good luck!

Hi Paul,

That would be great.

I woul like to start with 0.5/1 kg of filament to try it and than I will need many kgs.

I need it as soon as possible.

Let me know when you will get it, please.

Many thanks,

Best regards,

Donato

You can buy it everywhere. Why do you need to _make_ one?

Exactly what I was thinking, it’ll be far cheaper to buy in bulk.

Hi Paul, how are you?

Do you have any news about the filabot?

Many thanks.

Hi Don,

unforetunately I’m still waiting for the delivery of my filament extruder. I’m not sure when it is going to arrive. You may be better off buying some filament spools.

Hi Paul,

I am also planning to buy the filabot extruder.

If you have received it, can you share your experience with me?

Thanks
