Choosing the appropriate filament is the most important aspect of 3D printing. Use this decision tree as a step-by-step guide to get you on the right track. You can determine the most appropriate materials for your project by determining whether your parts require:

• Mechanical properties?
• High-resolution?
• Complex geometry?

3D printing materials include ABS, nylon, and PLA. These various materials are all used for different purposes due to their unique properties, such as flexibility or strength. 3D projects will vary depending on your needs and goals. No matter if you're working on a CNC prototyping project or 3D printing, it's important to start off in the right place with the correct materials for your project.
