Did you know print speed and temperature impact the appearance and strength of Silk PLA? We designed this interlocking tower to test speeds of 30-300mm/s with temperatures of 200-250C. More info here ➡️ https://www.tiktok.com/@overture_3d/video/7426402002491460906 Each tower features incremental sections of 30-300mm/s, but users will need to manually change the temperature per tower. We recommend bumping temperatures up 5-10C per tower to find the ✨sweet spot✨, for the maximum satin or shine. Please note1.) Make sure layer height is set to 0.4mm nozzle, 0.16 Optimal Height2.) Modify PLA profile to have your desired temperature of 200-250C3.) Confirm “Slow printing down” is disabled. 4.) Proceed with printing and record how temperature and speed impact the shine and satin appearance ✍🏻✍🏻 Our personal favorite was 200C at 200mm/s for flat metallic appearance, and 240C at 100mm/s for maximum gloss. Happy PrintingOverture Team & Greg
