Does anyone have a brand of PLA they like that offers refillable spools? I'm digging Overture and Elegoo using cardboard spools but if I could get/print a refillable one and buy just the filament itself going forward that would be an even nicer solution.

My personal go to brand for all my filaments is polymaker. They have a wide range of products to meet all specific needs at a right price. So far I've tried PLA, carbon fiber reinforced PLA, and PETG.

For PLA, I like their poly terra filaments because these are bioplastic, in recycled cardboard box and spool, easy to paint, and easier to sand compared to regular PLA.

I’ll check this out, thanks! Going to be printing a lot of terrain soon so easier painting is always nice
