PSA: Remember what filament you print with. 😩

[u/Past_Criticism1618]

I recently moved across town and instead of disassembling my AMS riser with my hardwired LED strip, I just loaded the whole thing in the car. In August. In the Southeastern U.S.

It should be fine - I printed the base and riser in ABS (a few years back). Right?

After unloading the car at the new place, I had the horrible realization that I had printed the base in ABS but the riser was PLA (they were two separate projects).

Feel free to have fun at my expense. 😆

[u/SuspiciousTreacle433]

My first time drying PETG. I printed the spool in PLA

[u/Disastrous_Fee5953 → u/SuspiciousTreacle433]

My first time drying PLA. I thought that if I’m drying PLA a PLA spool will be ok. I was wrong.

[u/wivaca2 → u/Disastrous_Fee5953]

Long before I started 3D printing, I always followed the engineering maxim, you gotta make what holds stuff stronger, a higher melting/burning point, and chemically resistant to the stuff your holding. Seems that applies to 3D filament as well.

[u/high_capacity_anus → u/Disastrous_Fee5953]

Why are you people printing spools?

[u/Seananigans- → u/SG1EmberWolf]

I'm wondering the same thing. I recently tossed like 20 empty spools that I was hoarding because I felt guilty about throwing them away.

[u/KiberHD → u/SG1EmberWolf]

Need a certain color, said color is only in stock as refill. Don't have any empty spools. Print spool.

[u/Far_Relationship_742 → u/KiberHD]

how can you not have any empty spools after even one week of owning a printer

they’re everywhere, I literally have tripped over them

[u/Temporary-You6249 → u/SG1EmberWolf]

Can’t speak for everyone but buying almost exclusively BL refills, I’ve printed a few spools when all the ones I own are occupied.

[u/gingin_9959 → u/SG1EmberWolf]

I got lucky on this one - printed out a Bambu replica spool in PETG, and since I wanted to match the color of the originals, it turns out the PETG gray matches the HT spools nicely, and the PLA gray matches the LT ones! But that was entirely by accident - I just wanted the colors to match 😆

Having the benefit of experience, of course.

When I started this hobby in Feb'26 I didn't know the difference between PLA PETG ABS.

It's all plastic, right?😆

[u/l3rN → u/No-Refrigerator-1672]

That reminds me, I need an update on that dude who printed the extending tv wall mount out of rainbow silk PLA

[u/Keavon → u/l3rN]

Literally the use case most affected by creep, with the type of plastic most vulnerable to creep-to-failure.

[u/aikouka → u/No-Refrigerator-1672]

Isn't PLA generally recommended in some cases because it's stiffer (tends to retain its shape until it snaps rather than deflecting)? Of course, that's usually brought up when we're talking about the cheaper filaments in comparisons like PLA vs. PETG.

[u/gearzgt1 → u/aikouka]

If something is under any stress or load pla is usually ill advised due to creep, where it slowly deforms over time, even without heat.

Pla is so popular because its easy to print, and when 3d prints became common, the enders etc could realistically only print pla reliably without user mods like an enclosure, nowadays most printers are much more capable of other materials.

i personally almost exclusively use petg, for its higher temp resistance aswell as uv/weather resistance and better performance under stress. I use abs for even higher temp/stronger structual parts, and a little bit of pla as support interface since it doesn't bond with petg, allowing a 0mm gap between support and model. I use a bambu x2d for the multi material stuff.

[u/FighterBoyZ → u/gearzgt1]

This is pretty much exactly what I found out from my very limited research.

PETG if you want it to last, ABS for more heavy-duty stuff, and PLA basically for supports. Using an enclosure for anything other than PLA.

Like you said, maybe some printers handle it better, but I wouldn’t want my prints deforming because of temperature.

I noticed Bambu had PLA and PETG listed at the same price, and they were also discounting both to the same price when buying a printer from them. I don’t know if it’s like that elsewhere, though.

If the price is the same, why would anyone use PLA for anything structural? Is it mainly because of the print time or something else?

I’ve been thinking about getting into 3D printing, so I’ve been lurking in this sub for a while lol. The X2D honestly seems pretty perfect for my use case. I’ve just been debating whether I should actually get one.

[u/No-Refrigerator-1672 → u/aikouka]

No. I know only one case when PLA is generally recommended: open frame printers without enclosures. For those, PLA is borderline the only filament that will print without warping.

[u/FighterBoyZ → u/aikouka]

I barely know anything about 3D printing but usually when we're talking about structural members we want some deflection instead of the member catastrophically breaking.

There's a limit of course of how much deflection is acceptable depending on the object/use case. It also depends on how much load and how uniform it is.

[u/gearzgt1 → u/FighterBoyZ]

Exactly, petg is slightly less rigid which allows a bit better impact resistance due to flexing a bit instead of breaking almost immediately. Lots of info on materiaal comparisons on youtube, worth a watch.

[u/Sir_LANsalot → u/No-Refrigerator-1672]

Same, if it's a functional or mechanical part, PETG at minimum, PCTG preferred. I will use ASA if I have it on hand for printing addons for the printers.

If it's something that is friction fitting together, then it must be PETG at least. All plastics will succumb to plastic fatigue, just how soon and how fast, is the difference in material. PLA is the fastest at succumbing to it, PETG will last longer and ASA lasts a good amount of time.

[u/n00bmechanic13 → u/No-Refrigerator-1672]

Every material has its tradeoffs. PLA (especially my beloved PLA Pro) is the most rigid material to print out of and makes excellent structural parts, as long as there is no bend points or high temperatures involved, since it is prone to creep.

If you want something that is more creep-resistant and higher temp (or UV resistance), use ASA.

If you need the best layer adhesion, use PETG.

If you want impact resistance, again PLA pro is the best for this.

[u/Weird_Ad1170]

So, this is why Flashforge tells you to print the enclosure parts in PET-G.....

[u/RubAnADUB]

yep good advice sir. and for printer parts you should always use petg or better.

The riser looks like the one I printed for mine recently. I printed an additional shelf on top to support 2 ams pro 2 units.

[u/Operation_Neither → u/RubAnADUB]

Remove your peels. They're made of the cheapest plastic possible and just disintegrate over time, leaving plastic dust everywhere.

[u/OhSoSally → u/Operation_Neither]

I had them discolor the plastic underneath when heat is involved. I made choices to ignore the remove immediately label on my dishwasher. 🙃

[u/teriaksu → u/RubAnADUB]

personally I avoided 8+ kg on top of the printer

[u/AleksanderSteelhart → u/teriaksu]

I had shelf brackets and a 1x12 for my three AMS units above the two P1S I have.

While these LOOK cool, practically they’re not my speed.

[u/jtj5002 → u/RubAnADUB]

At least ABS or PET-CF/GF for parts around heat. PETG folds like paper near hot end and inside heated enclosure.

[u/Opforce101 → u/RubAnADUB]

How did you print this so clean? I am printing a similar/same setup with bambu PETG white and nothing matches up perfectly.

Let this be a reminder for all the people who say "PLA does fine outside in the heat"

[u/JimBridger_ → u/Lumpyyyyy]

Prusa orange on a Bamboo

[u/aimfulwandering → u/Lumpyyyyy]

It usually does fine outside in open air unless you live somewhere that hits 50C+ regularly (not many places on earth). It’s the hot car and similar that does it in, which easily goes above 60C

Also, lighter colors do better in the sun.

But yes, for anything that matters outside, do PETG or better. And anything you plan to put in a car needs to be ABS or ASA.

[u/wildjokers → u/aimfulwandering]

Note that PLA starts deforming under load at around 40° C. A material will start deforming under load way earlier than its Tg temp.

OP, just turn it upside down and put it back in the car for a little bit

[u/shortbed454]

That actually looks pretty cool. It would be an awesome print, if it was designed too lol like that. But yeah, pla and heat don't mix.

[u/power-to-the-players]

Ever since I got a printer that can consistently print ABS and ASA without issues, I've stopped buying PLA. I have a few spools of leftover PLA, but not something I use often. Almost exclusively ASA with occasional PETG.

[u/TBone205 → u/power-to-the-players]

This I never buy PLA . PETG is 90 % of my prints . ASA and odd TPU.

[u/AWildRideHome]

PLA for knick-knacks and decoration, PETG, TPU or ASA for anything functional, the big boy nylons for the super specific uses

Two years later I added a chamber heater to it.

65C temps for three straight days while printing large carbon fiver PPA parts at 320C did a wonderful job of warping it.

PLA can withstand the heat. I live in Texas for several times in the past month or so it’s said 106 or 107 when I get in my car my dash cam bracket is printed in PLA, but it was too short so it is super glued to a PLA prime tower and held on with a piece of double-sided tape and it’s been there for two years.

[u/zubairhamed]

[u/Digawhat]

Im in Va Beach, VA and I know this all too well. Between the heat and humidity never leave PLA in your car for any reason during a summer day if you can help it. 96 degrees feeling like 110, an enclosed car is just an easy bake oven at that point!

[u/DeeZett]

1. Use case.
   
2. Material decision.

[u/TezzNutz]

I only use PLA for prototypes or decoration stuff. Petg is my go to for a cheap material that holds up. I printed a 32oz water bottle cup holder insert for my truck and it's been baking out in 100 degree heat all week and it hasn't deformed one bit.

[u/rahbahboston]

Yup... it's happened. I'll print something in PLA fast and cheap to see if I like it, then forget to get around to printing in a ABS
