PLA M12 Bolt - F&L setting - 20-03-2017

PLA M12 Bolt

3D Printed on 20-03-2017

 

Settings: Cura Quickprint Fast & Low. 60mms 220°

Bed: 70°

PLA: GEarbest Camel White 1.75mm

 

This was another test and Should have been printed with thicker walls and more infill but it was a quick test.

 

It was rethreaded with a M12 Threading die and came out a it wonky due to stresses as no lube and PLA is stiff.

It then works away fine and proves PLA plastic print can be done.

Not very strong due to print orientation. Given I have to rethread them to size, a horizontal print would be better.

 

It broke in a 3D printed nut I did later.
