I got some cheap asa cf off amazon and the texture is really weird it looks almost like cordura.

Printed this vertically to match the layers to another part its being attached to.

Print settings:

Line width .62

Line height .24

Temp 270 -260

Flow ratio .95

UPDATE: fixed? filament spent 2 days in the dryer at 70c and and im using a 0.8 nozzle instead of a 0.6 nozzle no more lizard skin. my best guess is moisture was boiling off from the cf bits in the filament and causing lots of tiny bubbles.

still don’t recommend this brand of filament(eryone) i’ll be sticking with isanmate and sunlu.

      It really is kinda neat if that’s a texture you’re going for. I think it would make a nice pen holder on my office’s desk.

      Not the ideal use of ASA, but also not the price of ASA.
