Move over chocolate eggs, this Easter we’re hunting for vibrant, high-quality 3D prints.

If your idea of a good time involves levelling your print bed while everyone else is levelling their blood sugar, same. And if you’re a 3D printing enthusiast living in South Africa, then there’s one name you should be rolling with this long weekend: SA Filament — proudly local, wildly reliable, and now on Easter special over at 3D Store’s Hot Deals section.

Let’s unwrap the (literal) layers of what makes SA Filament a must-print this season.

New to Printing? Here’s How to Get Started with SA Filament

If you’re just getting started and eyeing your first roll of SA Filament, welcome to the party. Here are some Easter weekend starter tips:

Start with PLA – It’s the easiest to print with and forgiving if your settings aren’t perfect.
Dial in your temps – For most SA PLA filaments, 200–210°C works great, but always check the specs.
Keep it dry – Humidity is the enemy. Store your filament in a sealed bag or dry box when not in use.
First layer matters – Take the extra 3 minutes to level your bed. Trust us.
Don’t be afraid to fail – Your Easter egg might end up a blob. That’s part of the magic.
