Printer: Adventurer 3
Filament: Flashforge Wood (dark)
Temperature: 190°C
Print time: 24 hours

Had some major issues with supports failing but decided to keep printing and see where it goes. All things considered I think it turned out amazingly well. The spaghetti from the failed supports eventually began to pile up and worked ok to support the overhangs.

After my first attempt failed with a clogged nozzle I reduced the temperature to 190°C because I read that lower temps work better with wood filaments. Pretty sure I should have also reduced the print speed, but at 24 hours this already took long enough. Had quite a bit of extruder skipping and the infill looks quite horrible, but the model is mostly hollow anyway and the shells printed perfectly, so I'd call it a success :D

I have to increase the minimum diameter for organic supports to 3mm.
