[Noisebridge-discuss] what is the white plastic filament next to the Makerbot?

I put together my Makerbot, and did a few test prints with the colored
ABS filament. Worked fine. However, the white plastic filament acts
very strange - it melts clear, with no smell, and completely collapses
in the extruder because it is so soft. I heard rumors that it is
actually Shapelock.

Is this true?

I have some spare bits, so I'll be fixing up the NB Makerbot in a bit.
