Every single video done by you is a MUST WATCH!🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍👏👏👏 This POLYTERRA does look like a very useful PLA for quite a few applications. I certainly would support their efforts in finding more environmental materials! And they sent it to the right person for unbiased testing, that is the way of success!
Great video, good that noticed the extra friction on the spool. It could impact print quality. Keep up the good work. Looking forward to your next video.
I was looking for a review for PolyTerra and came across yours. It's a good review style and love the accent! Good charm in your videos, more down to earth compared to some of the bigger channels. Keep up the good work. Your video convinced me to buy two rolls (Charcoal Black and Cotton White) for the 20cm statues/sculptures I'm printing. Time to do some testing of myself soon.
Amazing review! I am glad I came across this channel. Very detailed quantitative testing! Unlike any other filament review I've seen. Thank you so much for your hard work!! Hello from Australia
Your technical review are amazing!! One of the best PolyTerra review so far! I think your channel will go far! Thank you for the great and awesome work full of creativity :)
Thanks for this fantastic review! I was considering trying PolyTerra, but wanted to know the detailed tradeoffs. Your review told me everything I needed to know. Thanks for all the work you put into your filament reviews, they’re the best on the internet and immensely valuable!
I was surprised to find Polyterra on our local online shopping site, and I was surprised at the price (about USD14) which is why I ended up watching this video. This is about what you would pay for a lot of the PLA/PLA+ filaments here. I will have to try some.
Thanks for posting this excellent video. PolyTerra is one of the only aftermarket filaments with a pre-defined profile for the Bambu Lab printers, calibrated and tested for a high flow rate and thus fast printing speed. The video makes it very clear exactly what uses this filament would be good for (and not so good for).
Thank you for testing the layer adhesion, as that is usually the quality I'm most concerned about with the filaments I use. It looks like Polyterra won't be replacing Polylite as my go-to PLA. =)
Layer adhesion is better in pure pla than blends so that's fine. Thinking of using this stuff to replace esun pla+ since it's cheaper, more environmentally friendly, and seems to have decent mechanical properties.
They're amazing for miniatures. Matte finish allows for much easier painting and shading, especially if you're as lazy as I am and just use Contrast Paints.
Again not a 3d printer. But it’s fun to see the testing and the time you put in those videos. And I always comment good videos to help with the algorithm. 👍🏻✌🏻🇨🇦
I'd be interested in how well it does break down since normal PLA will only break down in temperatures around 60C. If you're interested in environmentally friendly filaments I switched to using Filamentive PLA about two years ago. They use up to 90% recycled plastics for their filament and I have not noticed any difference in strength or finish
Maybe I will include PolyTerra in temperature test in Part4 of my big PLA brand comparison. This is the first part: ruclips.net/video/L9tNhfxs9BU/видео.html
I haven't tried a lot of filaments yet, but this one has odd properties. Left a print overnight, and once the plate cooled the parts popped off on their own (almost perfect adhesion while it was hot). It technically prints a lot slower than most PLAs but is that info just... outdated? I know printers are probably getting a lot faster now so maybe it was never tested above 70mm/s when it was first made? Yes it gets less glossy when going fast but it's already so matte.
I just received my spools and tried them out on a Ender 3 . I have two such machines. My first machine ended up being clogged after the first layer peeled off several times even with the application of stick glue . My second machine had issues with adhesion however I fixed that issue and let the print continue. The print turned out good but I am not sure what nozzle temp will work better and what fan speed. The bed was at 60. I normally print with a bed temp at 55 and nozzle temp of 205. The second printer nozzle temp was 210. Fan speed 105.
Those will be tested too.. But first I have to finish big PLA brand comparison experiment (ruclips.net/video/L9tNhfxs9BU/видео.html ) then PETG, TPU, Nylon..
Can someone tell me, since the website says, it is slightly more abrasive than normal pla, if after one roll, your nozzle still has 0.4 diameter ? i dont really want to wear out my nozzle just yet
If you use poly terra with the cover you used for the ender 3 in another video, will the recycled spool burn? You said not to use cardboard for the cover in the other video
I'm having such a hard time printing with this filament on my vyper. Bed adhesion and blobs are my big issue. I even followed polymakers retraction settings.
And last question, do you have problems of adhesion because I often have the first layer that comes off with poly terra and thank you for your advice my bed is in glass
I don't want to put anybody out of business. I don't mind if anybody repeats the same tests too. It is always good to see results from other collegues.
I ordered some of the plastic without having watched the video and god forbid it is unusable if you plan to put any sort of mechanical stress on it. The layer adhesion, no matter the temperature and cooling is unusable.

Amazing review! I wish all filament reviews were like yours, not just "look how pretty this benchy comes out" hehe
Keep it up!

thank you for this review! i was on the edge about buying this but seeing this got me to buy it and i have no regrets!
I have been using polymaker pla two tone filaments for about 4 months and they are super high quality.
Great and informative video! I just bought a spool of polyterra, i think this is a very good filament. Thanks!
thanks for your great review. I will order some spools. one tree for one spool? thats awesome. other manufactures should do this as well.

Thanks for making this. It's good to know that it's maybe not the best for practical models. Very nice for aesthetics though.
Nice homemade tests! Great job :D Looking forward to seeing you test some PC or even CF Nylon in the future
That will be tested too. But first I have to finish big PLA comparison test, then PETG, TPU... etc ruclips.net/video/L9tNhfxs9BU/видео.html
@@MyTechFun good luck, that's a lot of work which is very appreciated :)

Great video with really good tests! Kudos to you sir! 😊👍
Fantastic video that has provided me enough value to try this out myself! Cheers!
They're amazing for miniatures.

Good video, I will consider this product next time I'm buying PLA
I've never seen a video review as good as this, 👏 😄👍🏼

Fantastic, very detailed review! Thanks
Great review, this helped my decision to purchase a lot!
Thank you, i'll try polyterra..
I think it's a amazing product, definitely buying some.
Looks like a good material to print prototypes, which are going to be thrown away. Less environmental guilt.
Very helpful. Thanks a lot !!!

Interesting filament.
I'm more of a PETg find of gay.
Thanks for sharing your experience with all of us👍😀
Thanks for watching! PETG will be tested too, similar to big PLA brand comparison ruclips.net/video/L9tNhfxs9BU/видео.html
can you test the filaments you showed at the start? the temperature resistance one, nylon ones, also PC
Those will be tested too.. But first I have to finish big PLA brand comparison experiment (ruclips.net/video/L9tNhfxs9BU/видео.html ) then PETG, TPU, Nylon..
Can someone tell me, since the website says, it is slightly more abrasive than normal pla, if after one roll, your nozzle still has 0.4 diameter ? i dont really want to wear out my nozzle just yet
When testing for layer adhesion, what temp did you print at?
210°C if I remember correctly (middle of recommended range)
If you use poly terra with the cover you used for the ender 3 in another video, will the recycled spool burn? You said not to use cardboard for the cover in the other video
I'm having such a hard time printing with this filament on my vyper. Bed adhesion and blobs are my big issue. I even followed polymakers retraction settings.
First solve the bed adhesion (glass?) Try some hairspray or PVA based glue stick. Blobs? Check the z offset distance and temperatures
Hey could you tell me what settings you use for the benchy because my filament just flows out on its own and makes a mess
210/60°C on Prusa MK3s (direct drive 3D printer)
Hi what is your filament settings in prusaslicer
I have an sidewinder x2
nozzle: 210°C, bed: 60°C, printing speed 40-60 mm/s, fan 100%
Ok but I start the cooling from which layer ?
@@g-shark6048 3rd
thank you i am a beginner in 3D printing and in english i use deppl
And last question, do you have problems of adhesion because I often have the first layer that comes off with poly terra and thank you for your advice my bed is in glass
Nice thorough video. At this rate you're going to put Stefan from CNC Kitchen out of business :-)
I don't want to put anybody out of business. I don't mind if anybody repeats the same tests too. It is always good to see results from other collegues.
Cotton? So these cotton products can't be recycled because who would take them?
carton spool
I ordered some of the plastic without having watched the video and god forbid it is unusable if you plan to put any sort of mechanical stress on it. The layer adhesion, no matter the temperature and cooling is unusable.
The scale is linear, but the amount of filament on the outer rim is bigger. Hm…
it's not easy to see but the markers get further apart as the weight goes down
PolyTerra is the worst filament I have ever used. DON'T BUY. I had adhesion and warping issues.
