Has anybody tried clear filament?
How clear is it?
I'm needing to make some adaptors for dust extraction, ie. to mount to a router/saw/drill etc and connect the extractor hose onto so was just going to draw them up and 3d print them but then thought clear filament would be better for this but I'm not going to buy a roll of it unless it's clear enough to see through.
I would want to be able to see enough to line a drill bit up to a pencil mark or a saw blade up to a line etc.
I'm appreciating it probably won't be glass clear but a perspex type clarity would probably be the minimum required?
