It is a question that we are constantly asked - What can I actually do with Laywood and Laybrick?Let's start with an introduction. Laywood is an alternative filament that is wood pulp combined with polymer binding agents. There is no warpage and a heated print bed is not required when printing with Laywood. By adjusting the extrusion temperature, models printed with Laywood can be made to appear with a "tree-ring" pattern.Laybrick is an another alternative filament that is polymer binding agents combined with super-fine milled chalk. There is very little warp and offers a variety of post-processing options. At lower extrusion...

Laywood and Laybrick are two specialty 3D printing filaments from Germany. The brainchild of Kai Parthy of cc-products, both filaments provide an added dimension to Fused Deposition Modelling and Fused Filament Fabrication 3D printing.    Laywood, the 3D printing filament that is infused with wood pulp, has taken the world by storm. Laywood 3D printing filament does not warp during printing, shows no shrinkage at all and also requires no heated bed - all in all one of the easiest 3D printing filaments to work with. Printing at various temperatures provides a finished product with different colours - 190˚C for...
