Sep 21, 2019 · It just has wood particles in it, depending on the brand it will be anywhere from 10% - 35% wood. It is probably just as strong as PLA without wood particles in it. If the parts you are printing need to flex a bit you should probably use PETG. If not PLA should be fine. Print with a very high infill. Note though that when PLA does finally break ...

Dec 21, 2020 · I have recently been using TECBEARS wood PLA and have been printing it at 205C 0.2mm layers using a 0.4mm nozzle. I set my retraction up to 7mm (CR10 bowden setup) to get a handle on stringing. I print at 50 mm/s with the initial layer at 20 mm/s and the wall speed at 25 mm/s (which are my normal PLA print speeds).

Jun 2, 2019 · So I bought the gel stain and started experimenting. I printed a flat panel of Hatchbox Wood, sanded it to completely remove any sheen, then applied the stain with a ragged cloth. I couldn't believe the results! So here are my best tips for staining wood PLA. First of all, filaments with actual wood do stain better.

Sep 29, 2020 · Today I did a temp tower with my new wood PLA with the following settings - as I heard that you should print feaster and with more/faster retraction to not clog the nozzle: 80mm/s 8mm retraction 50mm/s retraction speed

Jan 17, 2023 · I have done excessive printing with Wood filament in my X1cc's. Yes, .4mm nozzles are more prone to clogging than .6mm. However, i think it is more dependant on the filament you choose. I have printed with Amolen, Hatchbox, and 3DbestQ wood filament. Amolen is by far the better of them all in my opinion.

I used the MG Chemicals wood PLA to make a chess board (pattern was thing:869704 on thingiverse, but I did it without the hinge in the middle and scaled the squares up to 160% in Cura). I printed all of the squares using the wood PLA, then sanded, stained two different colors, and sprayed with acrylic clear coat.

For more info on settings and how I got my results check out this previous post. The key to getting good results with wood PLA is to sand and stain the items.
