I thought printing with this was a little bit complicated because I thought I remembered hearing that the carbon fibers sometimes will get embedded in your skin if you then touch the print.

I think the only thing you need to be careful with this, is ensuring you have a hardened nozzle. I went through 6-7 rolls of this the past few weeks printing lithophane frames as Holiday gifts and have not noticed anything on my hands at all. On my P1's I've been using the Bambu PLA-CF profile and the Elegoo PLA-CF profile on my Centauri Carbon and prints have come out great. Imo it's as easy to print as any other PLA.

Thanks, just ordered. I haven't printed with CF yet, this is a good enough deal to start.

Did you use this your for your frames just because your had it or for some specific reason? I've also been printing a few frames for gifts (how many gifts your doing to use up 6-7k though?!) but just used matte PLA and it worked well. But not sure if I'm missing something important not using something tougher lol.

As far as any danger handling this, I've heard several people say it's completely fine in printed form, in general, but you just definitely want to be more safe and careful if you are sanding it at all.

I ordered this same 10kg bundle from the last deal (was $10 more) having the frames in mind for a lot of the spools when buying it. I have close to 40 printed now of a few different types (some pretty large to hold a 185x185mm litho). I'm using it for the frames because of the seamless look and layer lines are almost non-existent. Matte is also a great choice for the seamless look, but a step below the PLA-CF look. You're not missing anything... I probably just went overboard lol.

Joseph Prusa vouches for CF filament and said they found it only dangerous when sanded or when being produced.
In my own experience and under a SEM, PETG-CF all prints parallel to the surface (aligned with print direction) and little/none of the fibers stick out. They are also usually 80 and 140 um long. In the end, CF is much safer for your lungs than glass/SiO2, since CF is pretty benign and your body can break down pure carbon. For small particle size damage, you're extremely unlikely going to be able to break the very strong carbon fibers down into small enough (<10um) lengths for that hazard to manifest.

Good info! I'm still wary enough to just avoid it myself... but good info for others who may decide to sand the material.
