What accessories do I need for my 3D printer?
Quill recommends accessories including extra nozzles, bed adhesives, filament storage containers, and maintenance tools like scrapers and tweezers. You’ll also want calibration cards, cleaning brushes, and filament cleaners. These tools help reduce print errors, keep your printer in good shape, and improve overall print consistency.
What is the difference between PLA and ABS filament?
PLA is beginner-friendly, biodegradable, and ideal for colorful or decorative prints. ABS is stronger and more heat-resistant—great for functional parts—but it needs a heated bed and proper ventilation due to fumes. Use PLA for ease, ABS for durability.
How do I store 3D printing filament?
Filament absorbs moisture, which can cause print defects. Store spools in airtight containers with desiccant packs or use filament dry boxes. Some models heat the filament before printing to improve consistency and performance.
