May I ask is ASA better than ABS for voton parts?
Sorry OP, cant help with your problem, never printrd ASA
Both ASA and ABS are approved materials. ASA has higher heat defection than ABS, should be easier to print and it smells significantly less when printing.
To add to OP's reply, ASA filament also tends to be higher quality, like more consistent diameter etc
Good to know thx. Its been a long time since my last ABS print and I was just going to order some, but I guess ill try ASA this time
