MatterHackers PLA Filaments Tested: Quantum, Tough & Regular PLA
In this video, I put MatterHackers PLA filaments to the test! From the eye-catching Quantum dual- and tri-color series to Tough and Regular PLA, I evaluate their performance with layer adhesion tests. Plus, I take a closer look at Tough PLA—how much stronger is it really? I'll compare its mechanical properties against Regular PLA to see if it lives up to its name. Stay tuned for the results!
