-# Materials
-
-bss's random thoughts and notes on 3D printing materials.
-
-## Bambu Lab PLA
-
-### Basic
-
-* In general, nice texture, but under direct light, you can see a bit of the infill pattern through the walls. Not super
-  distracting, but it's there.
-
-#### White
-
-* Walls are practically translucent, you can almost always see the infill. Do not use for major components.
-* Looks perfectly good for thin things like the Neutrik plates, decorative pieces, that kind of thing.
-
-### Matte
-
-* I don't like the texture as much, but they do produce nice non-primary color colorways, and you don't see the infill.
-* Seems like their plastic treatment leaves some plate residue, so be better about cleaning it or you'll get ghosts.
-
-## Hatchbox PLA
-
-* Haven't done a lot of this yet, but my wife really likes the blue.
