Screw this

I have been printing stuff with the black ABS that I got from Buy3DInk.com - you may remember that I was having a HELL of a time with it clogging my nozzle for a couple of months. I went to printing PLA for a while, then when I came back I was printing from the other end of the roll, having put the big 12# roll onto two rolls. It printed totally great for a week. Then yesterday it started jamming again.

I noticed that when it was printing fine it was smooth and pretty shiny. When it started clogging, it was dull looking and came out in lumps. Clearly it's just badly blended plastic.

Screw it, it's not worth the hassle. I'm buying a roll of black ABS from Ultimachine and throwing this crap in the trash.
