Scope it out, the guy tested pla parts on his battle bot with good results. The settings file is in the description. Snag it for experimentation.

    In a similar vein, I’d highly recommend touching base on how wire EDM is going. Rack Robotics is planning to put the ability to cut metal plate in our hands via a pretty cheap desktop machine. There’s a lot of personal manufacture you can do with something like that.

      the portable edm machine does look pretty cool. whenever it can print thicker parts, a lot of new cheap and easy manufacturing will open up yet again.

      I LOVE Rack Robotics concept. The chassis is 3d printed, assembled with hardware and submerged in a 10 gallon aquarium. It’s a wonderful time to be interested in home production. The new smaller metal sintering 3d printers are also incredibly interesting.
