Squirrel

New Rostock Max V2 user, so I'm learning... a lot.
I've done some ABS, PLA, and Taulman Bridge. Next I tired a squirrel for the kids with the ZenToolworks Wood ZTW 1.75 ABS Wood Filament. This stuff bridges the best of everything I've seen. Check out this guys tail.
I had to add supports because this guy's front paws actually come out, and dip down. But I expected supports for this tail.
The ridges also seems to be a lot softer with this filament. Which is nice if you plan to finish the item.
I read some posts about this stuff being brittle. It is. I broke it when I was first loading it. But with the top mounted spool on the Rostock Max V2 the filament path is very smooth. I don't expect any problems breaking it with this machine.
